I can see you're lonely, I can see you cry

I know you hide away your tears, never askin' why

I know you're lookin' for refuge, a solitary place

You're lookin' for forgiveness, I see it on your face

Woah-o-o-o-o...

You're playin' hideaway

You wanna hide away



You're boardin' up the window, closin' up the store



Don't wanna see nobody, you're lockin' up the door



Turnin' off your neon light, nothing left to say



The people that you left behind, you don't need 'em anyway



Woah-o-o-o-o...



You're playin' hideaway



You wanna hide away



Ain't got a lover, ain't got a friend

You think about the days gone by, but you're never goin' back again

A world without sorrow, you know it's never gonna be

Life without heart ache, you know you're never gonna see

Woah-o-o-o-o...

You're playin' hideaway

You wanna hide away
