Story Behind The Song
This song is actually written from a woman's perspecive. (I guess I got in touch with my feminine side when I wrote this one.......actually...if I DID have a feminine side......I'm sure I would touch it!!!) hehe :)
But really, John (Mr. Rhythm) came up with this really cool chord progression on the very first day we ever met. Later that night, Mike & I stayed up reeeeeally late while Mike played acoustic 'til his fingers bled and I wrote the lyrics and melody. The next morning, Mike and I showed John what would soon become the first song in the list of SiennaBlu originals. And as they say...the rest is history.
The best part of the song.....She fights back in the end!!......it's reeeeeeal cool :) kjl

Lyrics
It?s late I to think he?s back again
Stumbles in and bumps his head
Or is it mine that hurts so bad now and then
Should I wish him
Wish me away from here
Wish me away
Where the fear is never real
Somehow the good is all that I can feel
Oh so young yeh just seventeen
Was the love of my life
That kinda love gives you everything
Somehow now the reflection is a battered wife
Oh, wish me away from here
Wish me away
Where the fear is never real
Somehow the good is all I feel
No you don?t understand how I feel in my disguise
No you never say a word when I can?t open my eyes
Over time you turned away from me
But even still I have a surprise
The house is quiet -- 4 in the morning
And here I lay -- I can barely see
That last blow came without warning
But now the sights on him this one?s for me
Wish me away from here
Wish me away
Where the fear is never real
Somehow the good is all that I can feel
Wish me away from here
Wish me away
Where the fear is never real
Somehow the good is all that I can feel
