Half a World Away (Live 1991 FM Broadcast)

One, two, three

This could be the saddest dusk
Ever seen
Turn to a miracle
High-alive

My mind is racing
As it always will
My hand is tired, my heart aches
I'm half a world away
Here my head sworn

To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along and hold it
Go it alone
Hold it along and hold

Oh, this lonely deep sit hollow
I'm half a world, half the world away
My shoes are gone, my life spent
I had too much to drink
I didn't think, and I didn't think of you
I guess that's all I needed

To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along and hold it
Go it alone and hold it along and hold

Oh, this lonely world is wasted
Pathetic eyes high-alive
Blind to the tide that's turned the sea
This storm, it came up strong
It shook the trees and blew away our fear
I couldn't even hear

To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along and hold it
Go it alone
Hold it along and hold

To go it alone
And hold it along
Haul it along and hold it
Blackbirds, backwards, forwards, and fall and hold

Oh, this could be the saddest dusk
Ever seen
Turn to a miracle
High-alive

My mind is racing
As it always will
My hand is tired, my heart aches
I'm half a world away
To go
