Want to

Away In a cave so peaceful, I would sing for you a song In
sweetest voice possible that fill up your wounds as the storm passes away.......
Keep you hidden from the world, keep you safe from the torment In any possible way......
I want to collect so many....Just like you In one place

that have experienced so much pain
Let me take you away, I wanna put a smile on your face.”
