Distant Shore
(Billy Bragg)
Everyone knows that theres no place like home
Im just seeking refuge in a world full of storms
Washed up on a distant shore, cant go home anymore
The natives are hostile whatever I say
The thing they fear most is I might want to stay
By their side on a different shore, cant go home anymore
I escape my tormentors by crossing the sea
What I cannot escape is the memory
Washed up on a distant shore, cant go home anymore
Everyone knows that theres no place like home
Im just seeking refuge in a world full of storms
Washed up on a distant shore, cant go home anymore
Washed up on a distant shore, cant go home anymore
Washed up on a distant shore, cant go home anymore
