My Imagination

John Legend


I made them laugh
I made them cry
But now the rain and clouds
All lonely inside
They don't how it feels
To know how I feel
I tried to escape
From everything that is real

Hiding in my imagination
Safe inside
My contemplation
Never out of time
Somewhere in my mind
There's place where I'll be landing far away
From where I'm standing day by day creating my imagination

The world is running dry
Of all my ideas
Silence so loud
Have to cover my ears
I'm closing my doors
It's hurting too much
I'm running away
From everything I enjoy

To hide in my imagination
There is always magic waiting
Never counting time
Always on my mind
There's a place that only I see
Far away from all that haunts me
Inch by inch creating in my imagination

I can stop it all from hurting
With this mind I can stop the world from turning
Don't know how it feels to know how I feel
I try to escape from everything that is real

I can hide in my imagination
Safe inside
My contemplation
Never out of time
Somewhere in my mind
There's place where I'll be landing far away
From where I'm standing day by day creating my imagination
