Love the World Away – English Lyrics

• By: Matt Davenport

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Every now and then the world steps in

Stealing all our time away

It sometimes takes so much

We forget the touch

That's when I know it's time for me to say

Take my hand, let's walk through love's door

and be free from the world once more

Here's my arms, we can hide today

and love the world away

Once again we'll be

Free where our hearts are free

And the time is ours to share

Love we love will always stay

just a touch away, come with me

All the magic's waiting there

Take my hand, let's walk through love's door

and be free from the world once more

Here's my arms, we can hide today

and love the world away

We can love the world away
