TAKE ME AWAY TO A PLACE UNTOUCHED
BY AUSTERITY OF LIFE-
WHERE MEADOWS BREATHE WITH FREESIAS AROUND
WHERE WATER FLOWS WITH A CHIMING SOUND
WHERE SOUL'S SETTLE WITH NO FELONY
WHERE GLEE FANS FOR ETERNITY
TAKE ME AWAY TO A LAND UNSEEN-
WHERE EVEN AIR HAS A RENDITION
AND NO ONE'S CLAD IN PRETENSION
WHERE EMOTIONS FLOAT EVERYWHERE
WHERE KINDNESS MAKES ROCKS DISAPPEAR
TAKE ME AWAY TO A PLACE UNFELT-
WHERE NIGHTINGALES SING OF HUMANITY ALONE
WHERE MUSIC RUNS A PERENNIAL BOURNE
WHERE STONES ARE SOFT AS COTTON BALLS
WHERE GRIEF IS CONFINED IN STRONG BUILT WALLS
TAKE ME AWAY TO A LAND OF DREAMS
TAKE ME AWAY FROM FORLORN REALITIES
TAKE ME AWAY TO A PEACEFUL WORLD
TAKE ME AWAY, AND LET HAPPINESS UNFURL...
