Lyrics
v1
why do you turn away?
what's the story now?
is it some past romance or me that
drives you home so fast?
just you in your looking glass
rain has washed away the make up
showing places where love used to break up, coloring in the past.
it's been a year since you let go
promising never again to let yourself
open up the door without really
askin' who is there
(CHORUS)
Slip into your hideaway
safe and warm and no one's looking
singing a song inside your mind
you're sure no one can steal
slip into your hideaway
so quiet i can hear you dreaming
gaw head and talk but your heart
already heard how you feel
v 2
shadows of love never make it
past your own four walls
candlelight and cocktail
clutter up your empty halls.
turn around there's someone who is
walking next to you.
ya get the feeling you been
there before. better take the cue.
so you crawl away into a safe deposit box. try to discern between what's
real and what is fantasy.
the wall that hold the damn in is breaking rapidly and the
flood is on it's way to set you free.
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Living in the past
ain't gonna last forever
we're closer to the future than we ever were before.
how long can you go on dreamin' happily ever after
don't swallow the key. the world is
waiting by your door.
(Chorus)
