R.e.m. Half A World Away

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,

My head sworn

To go it alone, and haul it along

And haul it along, and hold it

Go it alone, and hold it along

Oh.........

Oh the lonely deep sit hollow

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

To go it alone, and hold it along,

And haul it along, and hold it

Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall

Oh..........

Oh this lonely world is wasted

Pathetic eyes, high alive

Blind to the tide that turns the sea

This storm that 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,

Oh.......

Go it alone, and hold it along

Haul it along, and hold it

Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall

Oh.......

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

Go........
