Home Again (Live at the Continental) - Mark Seymour

Surely not the place to make a movie

Surely not the time to begin again

But I'm heading down into

The town of shadows tonight

It's not paradise but I'm home again

Well I'm nervous and drifting like a stranger

But I've been around here many times before

And these disconnected memories are in danger

Losing you scares me right to the core

Well the last thing you said to me cut close

To the bone and I carried it inside of me

Like some heavy stone

Still I pray you're alone cos' I'm home again

Cos' I'm home again

I remember perfect open spaces

I remember running just to meet you there

But I see the desperation in their faces

People whisper there's fear in the air

Layin' low is easy there's no worries at all

Still it takes a little change

To make a telephone call

When the writing's on the wall

Cos' I'm home again

Cos' I'm home again

Now I've paid for all my troubles

And I've risen to the top

But I'm still living in the land that time forgot

I'm the king who never knew when to stop

But change is in the wind ready or not

There's a demolition derby in the garden

They say the past doesn't matter anymore

When the future is a secret closely guarded

No amount of faith could ever even the score

Sudden death is soon to be

The biggest game in town

The only antidote to all the grief that's

Going down is knowing you are here

It keeps me around

Now my feet are on the ground

Cos' I'm home again

There I'm home again

There I'm home again

Home again home again
