The great escape

If this was a paperback
I’d skip the boring chapters,
but life doesn’t work like that
and this is the morning after.

Will I, love you forever?
Will I, no matter the weather?
I, I’m not a pretender
Because no true love lies.

I don’t need to make a wish
I don’t need to grow up so fast.
And I can’t be who you want
if it’s not who I am

Will I, love you forever?
Will I, no matter the weather?
I, I’m not a pretender
Because no true love
Because no true love lies.

Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf
coming through my neighbourhood?
Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf
coming through my neighbourhood?
Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf?
Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf?
Who’s afraid?

This is the great escape
and I’m on your motorcycle.
Now just cue the violins
and we’ll blow out all the candles.

Because I, will love you forever
and I, no matter the weather
I, I’m not a pretender
I, I’m not a pretender
Because no true love
Because no true love lies.

Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf?
(I’ll love you forever)
Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf
(I’ll love you forever)
Who’s afraid, who’s afraid?
