"Take Me Away" lyrics - LISA STANSFIELD

How much hurt can we take

When it's cold outside all I can do is hide and pray for better times
Oh how I need a friend to wipe the tears from my eyes

Love is hard to find in somewhere so unkind
When it's been left here behind
There is a place somewhere and if you'll lead me there
Then we can open our eyes

So take me away
So far, so far away
Oh, won't you take me to a better day
Take me away
[Japanese lyric]
Oh, take me away
[Japanese lyric]
It's easy just hold me in your arms
'Cause when the world is upside down
We can bring it round

How much hurt can we take
How much hurt can we take

It seems that everywhere although we tried to care
We're just not taking the time
When all we communicate is full of greed and hate
It's time to open our eyes

[Japanese lyric]
We can bring it round
[Japanese lyric]
We can bring it round
[Japanese lyric]

There is a place somewhere and if you lead me there
Then we can open our eyes
Then we can open our eyes

[Chorus to fade out]
