Lying here,
All alone, in the shadows
I believe, when I sleep,
All the pain's gonna fade away...
I can dream, can't I?
When I close my eyes,
Kiss the world goodbye,
I dream I'm escaping...
To a land far away,
Through the night time,
There's a secret place
Where no one can hurt you;
Desert you...
No one hurts you!
That's why I'm escaping...
[Chorus:]
Oh! Oh!
It's hard to say goodbye
Knowing that when I try,
Try to forget you,
Love brings reality home.
I keep my heart up on the shelf,
Hiding inside myself.
What am I doing?
No use in faking!
When love is forsaken,
It's so hard escaping your love!
(Away... Away...)
There's a love
Made for me waiting out there.
When that day comes along
I'll be strong: I will make it through!
I can dream, can't I?
When I close my eyes,
Will the tears run dry?
This time I'm escaping...
[Chorus:]
Oh! Oh!
It's hard to say goodbye
Knowing that when I try,
Try to forget you,
Love brings reality home.
I keep my heart up on the shelf,
Hiding inside myself.
What am I doing?
No use in faking!
When love is forsaken,
It's so hard escaping your love!
[Instrumental]
(Away... Away...)
I can dream, can't I?
When I close my eyes,
Kiss the world goodbye...
This time I'm escaping!
[Chorus:]
Oh! Oh!
It's hard to say goodbye
Knowing that when I try,
Try to forget you,
Love brings reality home.
I keep my heart up on the shelf,
Hiding inside myself.
What am I doing?
No use in faking!
When love is forsaken,
It's so hard escaping your love!
(Away... Away...)
I'm going away...
(Away... Away...)
