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
