Half The World Away (Live at iTunes Festival, 2009) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I would like to leave this city
‘Cause this old town don’t smell too pretty and
Well, I can see the warning signs
Running around my mind
And if I could leave this island
I’d book myself into a soul asylum
‘Cause I can feel the warning signs
Running around my mind
[Chorus]
Here I go
I been scratching around in the same old hole
My body feels young, but my mind is very old
What do you say?
You can’t give me a dream if it’s mine anyway
Half the world away
Half the world away
Half the world away
I been lost, I been found but I don’t feel down
No, I don’t feel down
[Verse 2]
And one day I’m gonna leave this planet
You know I would stay but I just can’t stand it and
Well, I can feel the warning signs
Running around my mind
And if I could leave my spirit
I’d find me a hole and I’d live in it and
Well, I can feel the warning signs
Running around my mind
[Chorus]
Here I go
Still scratching around in the same old hole
My body feels young, but my mind is very old
Ba-da-da, what do you say?
You can’t give me a dream if it’s mine anyway
You’re half the world away
Half the world away
Half the world away
I been lost, I been found but I don’t feel down
No, I don’t feel down
No, I don’t feel down
[Outro]
Don’t feel down
I don’t feel down
I don’t feel down
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[Spoken]
Thank you very much
