Gotta Get Away

Gotta get away
Gonna leave this town today
It's been too long a time
I've been ready to go
But I just couldn't face it
My back's to the wall
Ooh, don't you know
I can't take it no more

This time in my life I know
I won't be coming home
Can't you see in my eyes
I'm gonna have to go it alone
I don't know where I'm going
All I know
Is that I gotta get away from here

There ain't nothin' in these dusty streets
But there's something in these dreams
I don't know what they mean
They come and they go
And they keep haunting me
Night after night
I turn them away
But they keep calling

This time in my life I know
I won't be coming home
Can't you see in my eyes
I'm gonna have to go it alone
I don't know where I'm going
All I know
Is that I gotta get away from here
