Lyrics
Listening to an angel
Whispering thing that sound like secrets
Telling of high adventure in the sky
Softly a voice like silver
Promises her a perfect moment
Keeping a dream of elegance alive
As the light changes she takes heart
Shadows play their part
Imagination lives again
And her escape begins
She's an escape artist
She's an escape artist
She paints a window on a blank wall
She's an escape artist
She sings a song about a free fall
Into the lap of love and luxury
Ahhhhs
Instrumental interlude
Outside the limits of her mind
What can she hope to find
A world where magic rules
And she no longer plays the fool
She's an escape artist
She's an escape artist
She paints a window on a blank wall
She's an escape artist
She sings a song about a free fall
Into the lap of love and luxury
