Peter Buck - Half A World Away lyrics

[Verse 1] This could be the saddest dusk I've ever seen Turn to a miracle, high-alive My mind is racing, as it always will My hands tired, my heart aches I'm half a world away here [Chorus] And I had sworn to go it alone, hold it along And haul it along and hold it Go it alone 'n hold it along Hold [Verse 2] Oh, this lonely deeps and holy way Half a world, half a world away My shoes are gone, my life spent I've had too much to drink I didn't think, I didn't think of you I guess that's all I needed [Chorus] To go it alone and hold it along And haul it along and hold it Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall Hold [Verse 3] Oh, this lonely world is wasted Pathetic eyes, high-alive Blind eye that turns to see The storm it came up strong It shook the trees and blew away our fear [Chorus] I couldn't leave it here To go it alone, hold it along Haul it along and hold it Go it alone hold it along Hold [Bridge] Go it alone and hold it along Haul it along 'n hold it Go it alone 'n hold it along Hold Go it alone and hold it along Haul it along 'n hold it Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall Hold [Outro] Oh, this could be the saddest dusk I've ever seen Turn to a miracle, high-alive My mind is racing, as it always will My hands tired, my heart aches I'm half a world away to go
