(A Place To) Hideaway

The Carpenters

Words and Music by: Randy Sparks

I’ve got to find a place to hideaway

far from the shadows of my mind.

Sunlight and laughter,

love everafter,

oh how I love to find

A place to hideaway.

I hear you whisper and I must obey,

blindly follow where you lead.

Knowing tomorrow

brings only sorrow,

Where can I go to find

A place to hideaway?

Bright-colored pinwheels go round in my head.

I run through the mist of the wine.

But night and the music remind me instead

The world once was mine.

I’ll save my pennies for a rainy day.

But where can I buy another you?

Dreams are for sleeping;

love is for weeping

Oh how I long to find

A place to hideaway?

But night and the music remind me instead

The world once was mine.

I’ll save my pennies for a rainy day.

But where can I buy another you?

Dreams are for sleeping;

love is for weeping

Oh how I long to find

A place to hideaway?
