Hustle bustle city life 
Buy the paper roll the dice
Out to get the prize but it’s the same old boring life

I see the day I see the night 
It could be peaceful but we fight
Why oh why can’t we just all live in peace?

Why won’t you take me away take me away now now? Why won’t you take me away take me away now now? To a place where we can escape this life we lead. To a place where we can all live in harmony. 

Tragedy is in the air 
But people just don’t seem to care
Ignoring all the warning signs
Lost in their material lives
Worries about the clothes they wear 
Or what colour to dye their hair while 

Babies are dying and mothers they are crying while their fathers are fighting for their family. Forests are fading there’s no time for waiting we better be changing instead of ignoring the truth.

Why won’t you take me away take me away now now? Why won’t you take me away take me away now now? To a place where we can escape this life we lead. To a place where we can all live in harmony. 

Why won’t you take me away take me away now now now 

Why won’t you take me away take me away now now now 

Why won’t you take me away take me away now now now 

To a place where we can escape this life we lead. To a place where we can all live in harmony.
