Lyrics:
, anywhere but here
On the edge of sleep, I was drifting for half the night
Anxious and restless, pressed down by the darkness
Bound up and wound up so
yourself an occupation ?
Oliver's Army is here to stay
Oliver's Army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else
Than here today
There was
Them and their daughters
And all of their sons
(Hey! Hey)
Here's to you (Hey) , Ronnie Drew (Hey)
Here's to you (Hey) , Ronnie Drew (Hey)
Ronnie Drew
anywhere
If I could be anywhere
If I could be anywhere in history, I would want to be here
The Romans, the Spanish the British the dutch
American
can take me anywhere
And you're making me feel like I'm loved by somebody
I can deal with the bad nights when I'm with my baby, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh,
it all to disappear. I'm heading anywhere but here.
All too often the dreams I've dreamed have died.
And all too often I'm never satisfied.
All alone as I walked by the banks of the river
Watching the moonbeams as evening drew nigh.
All alone as I rambled I spied a fair damsel
Weepin'
Earthly wealth and fame may never come to me
In the Pallit's Fair here my name may never be
But not come what may it cries for me with care
Anywhere
Anywhere, yeah, I don't care
We just fly away from here
Our hopes and dreams are out there somewhere
Won't let time pass us by
We'll just fly, yeah
If
anywhere
It's so hot, hot, hot in here
When we dried off by the bank, it was getting dark
We threw a blanket on the ground, underneath the stars
Shoulda'
Anytime but now
Anywhere but here
Anyone but me
I've got to think about my own life
We are consumed by society
We are obsessed with variety
hands
We all make mistakes
Yeah, but its never too late to start again
Take another breath and say another prayer
Then fly away from here
Anywhere
I fear
So by closing my eyes
I am anywhere but here
There's no need for anger
Religion or faith
One glade of grief
Will always remain
It's
Holler
Well, a lot of things have changed since a way back then
And it's so good to be back home again
Not much left but the floor, nothing lives here
chiseled from stone
I don't know how long ago some redman drew his bow on its last fight
Or did he drop it here afraid white men were near to attack
on the promenade
And the gamblin' commission's hangin' on by the skin of its teeth
Well, now everything dies, baby, that's a fact
But maybe everything that dies
I don't make the rules around here
A tear starts at the edge
It takes two hands to rip it
It takes a lot more than either one of us has said
But
drunk
As the leading actor hurried by in the costume of a monk
There was no actor anywhere better than the Jack of Hearts
No one knew
to
But the moment you set foot on my shore
That's when I knew
There's a difference in
Living and living well
You can't have it all
All by yourself
'cross the floor
When you look at me suddenly it's clear
You're burning up my dreams
Crazy as it seems
I don't want to be anywhere but here
Anywhere
I just took your picture off the table
And I just took your picture off the wall
Hide from you anywhere I'm able
But there's one place I can't
drunk
As the leading actor hurried by in the costume of a monk
There was no actor anywhere better than the Jack of Hearts
No one knew
no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming
A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But now from way up here
It's crystal clear
That
need bullets, hurry up run!
I put a clip in the gun, and pointed at his lungs
We both drew at the same time and stood stunned
Go ahead, shoot me, but
