《 R.E.M. - Half A World Away 》

《 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 hand is tired, my heart aches

I'm half a world away here

My head sworn

To go it alone

And hold it along

Haul it along

And hold it

Go it alone

Hold it along and hold, hold

Oh, lonely deep sit hollow

I'm half a world

Half the world away

My shoes are gone

My life spent

I had too much to drink

I didn't think

And I didn't think of you

I guess that's all I needed

To go it alone

And hold it along

Haul it along

And hold it

Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall and hold, hold

Oh, this lonely world is wasted

Pathetic eyes high alive

Blind to the tide that turns the sea

This storm it 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

To go it alone

And hold it along

Haul

To go it alone

And hold it along

Haul it along

And hold it

Blackbirds, backwards, forwards, and fall and hold hold
