Jonathan Jonsson - Escape Lyrics




Camilla wakes up in the morning
Working night shifts to pay the rent
Her days 'round here should be long gone
Though her loved ones already went
Husband left so long ago
And her son is all she has
He's all she knows and she's all he's got
They're all they've ever had

Camilla puts her son to sleep
Kisses him and says "Goodnight"
If this life's all we have
Maybe we're running away tonight

And a single mother cries in the backstreets of New York
She finds herself alone in the front of her own war
And if she dies on the cold hard floor, there's no one walking through your door
'Cause you're a single mother, crying in New York

Packed her bags and left last night
To find another way
Coast to coast just felt so right
Everything will be okay
The struggles to make it in this town
Ain't worth fighting for
The one who came as king
Left as clown
Gets swallowed by the storm

Camilla puts her son to sleep
Whispers "We will be alright"
We gave this dream all we had
God will lead us to the light

And a single mother cries in the backstreets of New York
She finds herself alone in the front of her own war
And if she dies on the cold hard floor, there's no one walking through your door
'Cause you're a single mother, crying in New York

And a single mother cries in the backstreets of New York
She finds herself alone in the front of her own war
And if she dies on the cold hard floor, there's no one walking through your door
'Cause you're a single mother, crying in New York
