The Gray Havens - Anywhere Lyrics

Eyes wide late night windowsill open
There's a shadow at my back saying everything's broken
So I pointed to a star saying that's where I'm going
Second to the right then straight til' morning

Praying in the dark please if you've got a moment
There's a shadow in my mind says you're never gonna notice
That I've been dying inside I've been trying not to show it
But I never want to feel this way again

So take me anywhere anywhere anywhere but here
Ah take me anywhere anywhere anywhere but here
I don't care I don't care I don't care where
Just take me anywhere
Anywhere but here

I've been trying to keep the faith
I've been trying to trust the process
But it just feels like pain, doesn't feel like progress
And it seems like a waste if I'm really being honest
I've been trying to fly away but I keep falling
And Neverland keeps calling

So take me anywhere anywhere anywhere but here
Ah take me anywhere anywhere anywhere but here
I don't care I don't care I don't care where
Just take me anywhere
Anywhere but here

I could spend my nights
Staring at the sky
Dream of ways to fly away

Chasing happy thoughts
Or a better plot
While I lose another day

And what a tragedy
To awake and see
That I've never learned to stay

So bring me to a place
Where I don't chase escape
Somewhere I could finally say

Don't take me anywhere anywhere anywhere but here
Don't take me anywhere anywhere anywhere but here
Don't take me anywhere anywhere anywhere but here
Don't take me anywhere, anywhere

Eyes wide late night windowsill open
