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

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

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

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

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
