Mel Tormé
I Can’t Escape From You
[Intro]
I'm not the type that I seem to be
Happy go lucky and gay
I'm not content but I dream to be
Happy and lucky someday
[Verse 1]
I'm free as a wandering breeze
I'm free to wander any place I please
And yet, I can't escape from you
I'm free as the birds in the trees
I'm even free to sail the seven seas
And yet, I can't escape from you
[Bridge]
I could ride away and hide away
Where we were miles apart
But when I got there, I'd find you there
Right in my heart
[Verse 2]
So you see that I'm really not free
I'm so afraid you might escape from me
And yet, I can't escape from you
[Instrumental break]
[Outro]
And so you see that I'm really not free
I'm so afraid you might escape from me
And yet, I can't escape from you
And yet, I can't escape from you
