The box sites 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      I've 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, untie your shoes   There's nothing in the 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 sites on the bridge   The crowd's still waiting
