lyrics

Take me to a place where the grass is always green
Lead me o'er the hills till the dark remains unseen
Everything nowadays seems evil and obscene
So take me to a place where the grass is always green
Warm summer snow.
Cold winter glow.
Don't notice the world that spins before you
Don't look at the earth spinning round and round and round
You'd think I'd be gone by now
Have you ever felt as if you were in a dream?
Take my fears away from me and drown them in the sea
Never never let me go
Don't let my freedom go
No no no
Can't let them know
Don't let your fears be shown
All the other people, staring
sitting in a row
Uh uh uh, won't let them know
Won't let your face be shown
Everybody everywhere is all up in my hair
But they still don't realize they're tearing me apart
Float me over raging waters
Fly me oversea
Till I've seen the burning sunrise don't abandon me
Everybody everywhere is all up in my hair
But they still think they're helping me to get my mind somewhere.
