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 could go and couldn't give a care.

I wanna be like harry houdini
Where there ain't nothin' that'll keep you 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.

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

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 could go and couldn't give a care.

I wanna be (i'm gonna be)
I gotta be (i oughta be)
Just like harry houdini
