If I could break the hold you have on me
If I could break the hold you have on me
If I could break the hold you have on me
With time still on my side

If I could get myself together
If I could get myself together
If I could get myself together
When you have torn me wide

If I can disappear from your doorstep
Without a long goodbye
Call me Houdini
Just call me Houdini
Just call me Houdini
I’ll escape with my pride
I’ll escape with my
I’ll escape

If
If I could swallow words you served me
And not be burned by fire
If I can shield the darts and daggers
You used to call me liar

If I can disappear from your doorstep
Without a long goodbye
Call me Houdini
Just call me Houdini
Just call me Houdini
I’ll escape with my pride
I’ll escape with my
I’ll escape

Tie silk scarves around me
�Round, �round, �round
So I cannot see
Lock me in a safe
My darling, darling
Throw away the key

Toss me overboard
To rest on the bottom of the sea
If what we had was magic once
I will soon break free

If I can disappear from your doorstep
Without a long goodbye
Call me Houdini
Just call me Houdini
Just call me Houdini
I’ll escape with my pride
I’ll escape with my pride
I’ll escape with my pride

Call me
Call me
I’ll escape with my
I’ll escape
