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
