Song Lyrics

Why don't we give it a try,

Everybody's waiting to see.

If I'm calling you

Or if you're calling me.

It's the same, oh why can't they see.

At night I look to the stars,

And chart out a course out for Mars.

I could take you there

Or you could take me here

It's a game, oh why can't they see.

1st CHORUS

Let's make the great escape

And get out of this place.

Straight to outer space

Where we can be alone, yeah.

I look myself in the eye

And ask myself why.

I could take you here

And you could take me there.

It's the same, oh why can't they see.

2nd CHORUS

Let's make the great escape

And get out of this place

Let's make the great escape

And get on out of this place.

Straight to outer space

Where we can be alone

Straight to outer space

Where we can have a home
