Another Letter Home - Del Amitri[00:00:00]
There's a true blue moon in the black city sky[00:00:09]
But it looks white as an eyeball from here[00:00:13]
And I wonder tonight [00:00:17]
Does it look white from where you are too [00:00:19]
And so far every morning [00:00:26]
I wake up missing you[00:00:29]
The sweat in my T-shirts and dust in my shoes[00:00:30]
Reminds me that paradise[00:00:34]
Is only a point of view[00:00:37]
You know everybody here[00:00:43]
Seems to be sleepwalking[00:00:46]
And pretending that they're free[00:00:48]
But they are all owned by Coca-Cola[00:00:51]
And maintained by vitamin C[00:00:54]
And there's freak shows and strip shows[00:01:00]
And theme parks and all those[00:01:03]
Standard distractions and curiosities[00:01:05]
So I smile at strangers[00:01:09]
Like this is the place to be[00:01:11]
But if you took away the sunshine [00:01:17]
Dirt would be all you'd see[00:01:20]
And someone should tell me[00:01:44]
How to stop feeling small[00:01:46]
Between sky-scraping offices and 20 ft Marlboros[00:01:48]
The squeeze of a hand suggests love but first[00:01:53]
How do you do [00:01:56]
And it's all so sincere here it[00:02:01]
Just seems insane[00:02:03]
Last night somebody told me[00:02:05]
That there's two ways to bane[00:02:07]
You can kill someone or you can dress up[00:02:09]
And change your name[00:02:13]
And you can be a has-been[00:02:18]
Without having been anything[00:02:20]
But the light relief at the end of the news[00:02:23]
When the hill of things you've[00:02:27]
Thrown away[00:02:28]
Is bigger than the things you've used[00:02:29]
But they say you can still see[00:02:34]
Your face in the polish on the President's[00:02:37]
Shoes[00:02:40]
So everyone's laughing and living in style[00:02:44]
The bill for the dentist as big as the smile[00:02:49]
I open my eyes and toothpaste is all I see[00:02:53]
You know everyone's so friendly here[00:03:01]
They just postponed WW3[00:03:04]
