I made my place by the door. / I didn’t know what I was waiting for. / It felt just like home, / except no grass, no yard, no pictures hung.
I could see across to the park. / And there were friends; they were laughing hard. / They looked just like my own / with no face, no name, no voice I know.
I finally made it, I made a clean getaway. / I finally made it, I made a clean getaway.
I met someone at the bar. / He had a great smile and a great heart. / It felt just like love, / except no fear of losing and it wasn’t tough.
I finally made it, I made a clean getaway. / I finally made it, I made a clean getaway. / And I miss you. I miss you every single day.
