Take it from the top

I wanna be like Harry Houdini
And be the one to make the great escape
I wanna be where no one'll see me
You've gotta learn a lesson, give and take

I wanna be where lovin' is easy
If I could go it wouldn't be a dare
'Cause when you look in my eyes
How can you not realize
That I would go and couldn't give a care

I wanna be like Harry Houdini
Where there ain't nothin' that'll keep me in
I wanna be where no one'll see me
Can't find a way to say I can't begin

And when I'm gone I know how you'll miss me
How could there ever really be a doubt
'Cause when you look in my eyes
How can you not realize
That you could never really be without

How much more can I believe in
The things they say
I'm past the point, I'm leavin'
I gotta get away

I wanna be just like Harry Houdini

I wanna be like Harry Houdini
And be the one to make the great escape
I wanna be where no one'll see me
You've gotta learn a lesson, give and take

I wanna be where lovin' is easy
If I could go it wouldn't be a dare
'Cause when you look in my eyes
How can you not realize
That I would go and couldn't give a care

Why should I try to change me
You never will
My past comes back to chase me
I won't be happy till

I won't be happy till
I wanna be
(I gotta be)
Like Harry Houdini
I'm gonna be
(I wanna be, I'll be)
Like Harry Houdini

I'm gonna be
(I'm gonna be, atleast me)
Like Harry Houdini
I'm gonna be
(I wanna be)
I gotta be
(I'm gonna be)
Like Harry Houdini
