To better days take me away
I got a love and I know that it's all mine, oh, oh oh oh
Wish that you could but you ain't gonna own me
Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me, oh, oh oh oh
(I got a love and I know that it's all mine)
Take me away to better days
Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me, oh, oh oh oh
Take me away to better days
Take me away, a hiding place
A secret place
I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine
The sun is on my side and takes me for a ride
Take me away, a hiding place
Take me away, a hiding place
I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine
Take me away, a hiding place
Take me away to better days
A sweet escape, take me away
(I got a love and I know that it's all mine)
I smile up to the sky, I know I'll be alright
Take me away
Take me away, a secret place
Take me away
And there's no more lies in the darkness there's light
And nobody cries, there's only butterflies
Take me away to better days
Take me away, a secret place
The sun is on my side and takes me for a ride
A secret place
(I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine)
There's a place that I go that nobody knows
(I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine)
Take me away, a secret place
Take me away, a hiding place
Where the rivers flow and I call it home
A sweet escape, take me away
Do anything you can to control me, oh, oh no
Do what you want but you're never gonna break me
Do what you want but you're never gonna break me
A sweet escape, take me away
A sweet escape, take me away
I got a love and I know that it's all mine, oh, oh oh oh
Take me away, a secret place
