Album Cover Anywhere But Here

Anywhere But Here

Christina Aguilera

6

There's no need for distance

No need for touch

No need for answers 'cause I've heard enough

I just find a chair

Some place out of reach

I enter the darkness and claim my release

And open my, open my heart

Sing like a nightingale

Open my, open my hands

When no one else understands

I just close my eyes

And count to ten

Breathe in twice

And open them

Know where to go cause I've been there before

In my mind it is near

I escape all I fear

So by closing my eyes

I am anywhere but here

There's no need for anger

Religion or faith

One blade of grief

Will alway remain

It's not on the paper

Or a story book

It's a place to reunite with all that was took

And open my, open my heart

Sing like a nightingale

Open my, open my hands

When no one else understands

I just close my eyes

And count to ten

Breathe in twice

And open them

Know where to go cause I've been there before

In my mind it is near

I escape all I fear

So by closing my eyes

I am anywhere but here

Picture a land where you never have been

Where life is eternal and ever green

The future of happiness and certainty

You're loved and you're lost there for now and eternity

I close my eyes

And count to ten

Breathe in twice

And open them

Know where to go cause I've been there before

In my mind it is near

I escape all I fear

So by closing my eyes

I am anywhere but here
