You don't have to stay there
You don't have to live like that
So don't just lay there
Take my hand, take my hand
You don't have to fake it
The things they've done are not okay
So don't just lay there
Take my hand, take it
Come away, come away
chorus
Step outside and say goodbye
To your dark rooms of shame
Take my lead and you will find
Yourself smiling wide
Why give your love
To those who are using you
Why be afraid
Take my hand, take my hand
And don't buy their lies
That keep you hiding from me
Cause you can make it
Take my hand, take it
Come away, come away
