I Cant Escape - Lyrics by John Denver


Lyrics

This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the one world album. it has also been released on the country roads collection album.

Funny thing about this little heart of mine
All the ways that it can say
(i love you)
Longer than forever
Till the end of time
No matter baby come what may
(i love you)
Look at me now sittin' all by myself
Face another sleepless night all alone
All i look forward to is lying here living this song

I can't escape thinking every day about you
Can't escape wishing dear you were still mine
Can't escape thinking maybe i still love you
Can't escape caring for you all of the time

Listen to the music on the radio
Top forty hits of yesterday
(i love you)
Leavin' on a jet plane
Blowin' in the wind
The silly games that people play
(i love you)
Each of them carries your memory still
I can still see that look in your eyes
The one that preceded your kisses and followed your sighs

I can't escape thinking every day about you
Can't escape wishing dear you were still mine
Can't escape thinking maybe i still love you
Can't escape caring for you all of the time

Every rain in the morning reminds me of you
Every night when it's cold outside
Every time that i ache inside
(i love you)
(i love you)

Sometimes i wish it was ten years ago
We were starting all over again
Yet the way that i feel is much more than just remembering when

I can't escape thinking every day about you
Can't escape wishing dear you were still mine
Can't escape thinking maybe i still love you
Can't escape caring for you all of the time

All of the time
All of the time
