Sitting there at home, he arrived home late 
With no more blood cells to inebriate 
He lunged at her there, she fell from the couch 
He grabbed her body as he pulled her down 
She was screaming no, kicking out at him 
But he weighed a ton, she could never win 
He fell down on her like a sack of snakes 
Tears fell from her face as she cried and cried 

When there's hope, when there's fear 
What is there to say that he might hear 
You turn him down with no mistake 
Now you're leaving in the great escape  

She ran from the room out of their back door 
Leaving him to sleep on the front room floor 
And she walked that night to the town hall square 
She knew it was through and she didn't care 
She stood up to him, he looked down on her 
He shot the message and the messenger 
When he woke he was sick with all the shame 
Tears fell from his face as he cried and cried 

When there's hope, when there's fear 
What is there to say that he might hear 
You turn him down with no mistake 
Now you're leaving in the great escape 

She arrived back home, he was on his knees 
Begging with his heart "please come back to me"

When there's hope, when there's fear 
What is there to say that he might hear 
You turn him down with no mistake 
Now you're leaving in the great escape
