The Smith Street Band - Never Come Back Here lyrics
[The Smith Street Band - Never Come Back Here lyrics]
Stop again wandering and wondering
Where all this fucking sky had
Been and the clouds
They cover nothing but their own tiny divides
So I stick my left hand out the window
Blow a fist at Sydney's stinking sky
And I said, "We said we'd
Never come back here
Now we're never going home
Where the kids drink
Things they shouldn't and I sneak off
To some room alone" You said, "My dear
I am sorry" And I
Said, "My darling what for?" Together
We laughed at exchange rates
Both of us so desperate for more
And everything looks like a 1970's
Sunset through the window
Of the overnight cross-country train
You came home, we stayed
Indoors and together we prayed
For rain found something, vast
And indescribable and warm amongst
The noise of consumption
Assumptions you were wrong you'd gone
And loved me all along
And I never felt safer in the arms
Of a stranger than when we met
But in these last few days I've found
Peace in your passenger seat cross
Legged on his hardwood floor
Fighting and flying
From thoughts with a secret smile
For the corner of the room and
My toothiest grin just got you
So desperate for more
