[Track #6]
Somewhere she waits for love
Somewhere she waits for love
Hush my little darling, don't you cry
Somewhere long lost words
from a soft lullabye
In a world where love can hurt you,
dreams desert you
An answer's hard to find
Full of faith, still something's missing
No one to run to
(chorus)
Somewhere she waits for love
with the open eyes of a little child
She's looking back for love
and the dreams she left behind
in a lullabye
Kill the TV set, switch off the lights
Keep the world outside locked away for the night
Smoky bars and cheap seduction,
false surrenders
Nothing much to lose
All grown up, the world seems colder
So sad and lonely
(chorus)
Somewhere she waits for love
with the open eyes of a little child
She's looking back for love
and the dreams she left behind
in a lullabye
A promise from yesterday surrounds her
as she waits there for love
Close your eyes, the spell is broken
Your dreams are calling
(chorus)
Somewhere she waits for love
with the open eyes of a little child
She's looking back for love
and the dreams she left behind
Somewhere she waits for love
with the open eyes of a little child
She's looking back for love
and the dreams she left behind
Somewhere she waits for love
