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]
