George Jones - I Can't Escape from You Lyrics

I tried and tried to run and hide
To find a life that's new
But where I go I always know
I can't escape from you.

A jug of wine to numb my mind
But what good does it do
The jug runs dry and still I cry
I can't escape from you.

--- Instrumental ---

These wasted things or souvineer
Of a love I thought was true
Your memory is changing me
I can't escape from you.

There is no end I can't defend
That dream will soon come true
Afraid to roam a heart of stone
I can't escape from you...
