Written by:Harris/Justin Sullivan/Rob Heaton/Sullivan/Tom Dowd[00:00:00]
Well Joey puts her make up on really well[00:00:13]
She looks cool in the flashing lights[00:00:15]
And all the boys gossip about the shape of her legs[00:00:19]
On these muddled up and drunken nights[00:00:21]
And if it's all got to end up between the sheets[00:00:24]
She can coo like a virgin dove[00:00:27]
But really she just doesn't want to be alone[00:00:30]
And if you want you can call that[00:00:33]
Love[00:00:36]
Ah yea[00:00:47]
M6 southbound roadside[00:00:49]
Cafe on a wild wet windy night[00:00:51]
There's a kid in a sleeping bag[00:00:54]
Huddled in a corner[00:00:56]
Trying to beg a light[00:00:58]
He's got mum and dad tattooed on his arm[00:01:00]
From when he thought that that would make it alright[00:01:03]
He's got hope and fear on his young boy's face[00:01:06]
Another innocent taking flight[00:01:09]
Saying[00:01:12]
Give me some place that I can go[00:01:13]
Where I don't have to justify myself[00:01:16]
Swimming out alone against this tide[00:01:19]
Looking for family looking for tribe[00:01:22]
Looking for family searching for tribe[00:01:26]
Looking for family looking for tribe[00:01:29]
They said go get out we've got our own lives to lead[00:01:42]
Now that water is thicker than blood[00:01:46]
And every house is divided into single flats[00:01:48]
With their very own little welcome rug[00:01:51]
The shopping mall it is teeming with life[00:01:55]
Fighting for the goodies on the shelf[00:01:58]
But there's those funny old people on the escalators[00:02:01]
Talking to themselves[00:02:04]
Saying[00:02:07]
Give me some place that I can go[00:02:07]
Where I don't have to justify myself[00:02:11]
Swimming out alone against this tide[00:02:14]
Looking for family[00:02:17]
Looking for tribe[00:02:19]
Looking for family[00:02:20]
Searching for tribe[00:02:21]
Looking for family[00:02:23]
Looking for tribe[00:02:25]
So[00:02:37]
Yeah give me some place where I can go[00:02:49]
Where I don't have to justify myself[00:02:53]
Swimming out alone against this tide[00:02:56]
Yeah swimming out alone against this tide[00:02:59]
Looking for family[00:03:02]
Go searching for tribe[00:03:04]
Looking for family[00:03:05]
Well I survive on my own for a while or so[00:03:10]
Upon a whim or a bottle of wine[00:03:13]
Just trying to make sense[00:03:16]
Of these new surroundings[00:03:18]
I only changed my name a couple of times[00:03:19]
Please take me back Joey well I'm really sorry[00:03:22]
Can we try to make a happy home[00:03:26]
But she's gone with someone else[00:03:28]
And they're starting a family[00:03:30]
Trying for a clan of their own[00:03:31]
So[00:03:34]
Give me some place that I can go[00:03:35]
Where I don't have to justify myself[00:03:38]
Swimming out alone against this tide[00:03:41]
Looking for family looking for tribe[00:03:45]
Looking for family searching for tribe[00:03:48]
Looking for family[00:03:50]
Yeah[00:03:52]
