Dina Carroll: Escaping

Dina Carroll: Escaping
from the album, "Only Human" (1996)
Nationality: England

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

Margaret Urlich did the original in 1989. The lyrics have been altered for no good reason

[stockcar269s]

Margaret Urlich's version from 1989 is much better
