Houdini's Box Lyrics

The box sits on the bridge,
The crowd is waiting.
The chains are locked across my chest,
There's no heart breaking.

I've done this show a thousand times,
This trick's so easy.
As they lower me into your waters,
There's no escaping.

There's a secret passage out of here,
But I don't want to reappear.
I just want to stay with you in here.

In Houdini's box,
Close the lid and tie the knot,
Houdini's box...

The clock ticks by the bed,
I hear you breathing.
I should be out the door,
But I'm not leaving.

Still the scars from my last escape,
I nearly drowned beneath the lake,
Stayed down too long, dreaming about you...

In Houdini's box,
Close the lid and tie the knot,
Houdini's box...

In Houdini's box,
Houdini's box...

I'd take such good care of you,
I'd brush your hair and tie your shoes,
There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do.

In Houdini's box.
In Houdini's box.
Seal the lid and tie the knot,
In Houdini's box,
Houdini's box.
Houdini's box.
Houdini's box.
Houdini's box.

The box sits on the bridge.
The crowd's still waiting...
