hideaway

The Carpenters

I've got to find a place to hideaway

Far from the shadows of my mind

Sunlight and laughter, love ever after

For how I long to find a place to hideaway



I hear you whisper and I must obey,

Blindly follow where you'll be

Knowing tomorrow brings only sorrow

Where can I go to find a place to hideaway



Bright colored pinwheels go round in my head

I run through the mist of the wine



(*) The night and the music remind me instead

The world once was mine

I'll save my pennies for a rainy day

But where can I buy another you?

Dreams are for sleeping

Love is for weeping

Oh, how I long to find a place to hideaway



Repeat (*)
