Anywhere But Here Lyrics by Kelly Willis, Bruce Robison

Our Year

0

[Verse 1:]
Fourteen and wondering when my life begins
My brother softly sleeping, rain upon the tent
Love's still a mystery, the summer day so slow
A hauling hay, another place, it was a lifetime ago
Take me back somewhere

[Chorus:]
But now it's old as stars and shadows
And heaven's just a dream; I thought that i knew trouble
But the devil laughed at me. Any life that was worth living
Any moment that's not here
It's getting harder to remember anywhere, but here

[Verse 2:]
Rhyme without a reason, time without a place
The sweet smell of her brown hair
Lips upon my face.I feel her soft surrender, I know the moments gold
The yesterdays are a river that the mind can only hold
I close my eyes I'm there

[Chorus]

[Outro:]
Anywhere but here
There's a breeze upon the water
Anywhere but here
There's people there who care
I know my mind is aching the moments stay awaken, seem so clear
Fourteen and wondering when my life begins
My brother softly sleeping, rain upon the tent
