Escaping

Dina Carroll

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 it's hard to say goodbye


Knowing that when I try


Try to forget you


Love brings reality home


I keep my heart upon the shelf


Hiding inside myself


What am I doing


No use in fading


When love is forsaken


It's so hard escaping your love


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


Didn't think that I'd meet somebody


Who loves me like you do


Didn't think I'd ever love somebody


The way that I love you


chorus
