"Wanna get away?"
Don't take Southwest Airlines... there's a better way.

Get Away
©2006 John Dupuis and Dale J Mayer, All Rights Reserved.

Sometimes I find myself wantin’ to get away.
But no matter how far I run, I just can’t get away.
I’m trapped inside myself
No one here but me
Doesn’t anybody see?

Sometimes I’m wonderin’ ”what’s goin’ on?”
Or is there anyone who knows what’s goin’ on?
Walking down the same old road
In the same old worn out shoes
And nothin’ left to lose.

Jesus, please… I’m on my knees
I need to listen to you now.

He said…
My son, I know just what you’re going through
And if you really do, really want to make it through
Just step outside yourself, your answer’s waiting there
Don’t be afraid of the truth.
If you want to find yourself, then you must lose yourself
And behold… all things are new.

Someday you may find yourself wantin’ to get away
And no matter how far you run, you just can’t get away
You must lose yourself, to find out who you are
And the love that waits for you
So when he calls you to himself, the answer isn’t far
Behold… all things are new…..… all things are new.
