(l. stansfield/aska) How much hurt can we take When its 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 its been left here behind There is a place somewhere and if youll lead me there Then we can open our eyes Chorus So take me away So far, so far away Oh, wont you take me to a better day Take me away (japanese lyric) Oh, take me away (japanese lyric) Its 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 Were just not taking the time When all we communicate is full of greed and hate Its time to open our eyes Chorus (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 (repeat chorus to fade out)
