(D. Dickers)
Hey there, could you spare me some time
I'd like to tell a tale of simple pleasures
Some choose to be partners in crime
Until they find they cannot live up to the pressure
Just like an ordinary man
I like to pay a small price for heaven
The simple things in live
Are keeping me alive
When I'm walking through the gardens of temptation
Away from the darkest shadows
Away from the brightest sun
I'll be forever tryin'
To find some peace of mind
Like a man out of time
Nothing's gonna drive me away
I'm feelin' like a knight who's on a mission
People don't believe what I say
They're just afraid of a man with no ambition
I saw the writing on the wall
It told me that my sun will go on shining
Cos I just don't rely
On mountains to get high
The key to my success is only common sense I guess
Away from the darkest shadows
Away from the brightest sun
I'll be forever tryin'
To find some peace of mind
Like a man out of time
And if you wanna walk with me
A little bit of soul is all you need
To hear a different beat
And dance into the light
Of a world that's open wide
Away from all the tears, away from all the fears (3X)
Away from all those silly games people play
Away from all the tears, away from all the fears
Away from all those silly games people play
I walk the winding road
And let the dream unfold the day
