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]
