The Escape

It's the last time I'm walking this road
Saying goodbye to a part of my life
Turning my back to forget all that has been
Reaching out for the freedom ahead

Having waited for this moment so long
I turn away from this place
Where everything's changed me so much
Walking away with a smile
These memories will finally fade

It's the last time I'm walking this road
Saying goodbye to a part of my life
Turning my back to forget all that has been
Reaching out for the freedom ahead

Leaving nothing but fingerprints back
I'll never return to here again
Time heals wounds they say
I be able to smile once I look back

It's the last time I'm walking this road
Saying goodbye to a part of my life
Turning my back to forget all that has been
Reaching out for the freedom ahead

It's now been years since I'd left
I still don't regret I did
Surely haven't missed it at all
Finally living my own life

Back then I'd walked this road
Approaching a new part of my life
Turning a smiling face to new future
Walking into the freedom I'd seen ahead
