Sitting in a foreign setting Bands in backgrounds always play Their phoney lonely cacaphony It didnt have to be this way Some place alone, yeah yeah And no one known, yeah yeah So far from home here, yeah yeah, yeah yeah Oohh oohhh, ooohh I really didn't choose to leave you To tear myself away so long To travel and unravel all the fabric we'd sewn So now something's wrong And the world we used to know has gone Some place alone, yeah yeah And no one known, yeah yeah So far from home here, yeah yeah Years of awkward confrontation
I'd like to set your mind at ease But stuck here in these muddled ages I find the words won't please Where could we dwell Within our past alive and well Escape from all that's hard to bear To where the child that you were creeps near, without fear Scary things aren't always clear To hide in fiction and nostalgia can be eerie too You cannot drive and stare rearview Oohh oohhh, ooohh Some place alone, yeah yeah And no one known, yeah yeah So far from home here, yeah yeah, yeah yeah
