Put me on an aeroplane A million miles away She's opened up a book of hate And tore a brand new page Tonight I'll find a wishing well Tomorrow's a new day Tonight I'll find a wishing well before it's too late Show me the way Show me the way Why do my dreams keep slipping away? Show me the way Show me the way Spent a whole lifetime running away She questioned my ability To learn from my mistakes I said she'd need a guillotine To put me in my place Tonight I’ll write my eulogy Before I fade away Tonight I'll write my eulogy so don't be afraid Show me the way Show me the way Why do my dreams keep slipping away? Show me the way Show me the way Spent a whole lifetime running away And every time I close my eyes, I've lost another day Show me the way Show me the way Why do my dreams keep slipping away? The waves came crashing down fast And when the storm was over the sky turned black And now I pray for sunshine I pray for sunshine I pray you'll help me to escape Show me the way Show me the way Why do my dreams keep slipping away? Show me the way Show me the way Spent a whole lifetime running away And every time I close my eyes, I've lost another day Show me the way Show me the way Why do my dreams keep slipping away? Every time we close our eyes, we've lost another day Every time we close our eyes, our dreams will have to end
