lyrics

WE’LL GO HOME

Why can’t I walk down the side of the street where there’s people?
Cos people can be so unkind when they stare at my soul
It’s like – “where have you been?” and “what have you done with this lifetime?
Have you wasted it singing in bars for a piece of fools gold?”

So why should I try to behave as if nothing’s gone wrong?
I knew all the legends they sold me were lies all along
Now there’s no-one to listen and no-one to sing you my song
no-one to listen and no-one to sing you my song

Don’t be so hard on yourself there’s a New World
Waiting for you to be born, you old fool
Sing me a song, tell me a story
Then, take my hand we’ll go home

How can I reach out to you when you stand in the shadows?
Well I never knew hide and seek was a game I could win
But I’m burning with love and lost in the hurt that you sing
Then I really can’t help, you I just don’t know where to begin
No I really can’t help, you I just don’t know where to begin

Don’t be so hard on yourself there’s a New World
Waiting for you to be born, you old fool
Sing me a song, tell me a story
Then take my hand we’ll go home
Sing me a song, tell me a story
Then, take my hand we’ll go home

What shall I do if I open my heart up to you?
Open your heart and you’ll know right away what to do
Will it be safe after years of collisions at sea?
No you won’t be shipwrecked – I’ll throw out a lifeline to me
But what if I can’t swim, I’ll drown in the ocean or freeze
But what if I can’t swim, I’ll drown in the ocean or freeze

Don’t be so hard on yourself there’s a New World
Waiting for you to be born, you old fool
Sing me a song, tell me a story
Then take my hand we’ll go home
Sing me a song, tell me a story
Then, take my hand we’ll go home

Don’t be so hard on yourself there’s a real World
Waiting for you to be born, you old fool
Sing me a song, tell me a story
Then take my hand we’ll go home
Sing me a song, tell me a story
Then, take my hand we’ll go home
we’ll go home
we’ll go home
we’ll go home
