Somewhere Else

Kathleen Edwards

I used to look for you out in the daylight
I took highways and side streets and back lanes
Slept under open skies
Life could be cruel
Life could be sweet if I want it to be
This town that I once called home
I just can't hold on to
It's got strip malls and bus stops and people
I never really talk to
She said, “Life could be sweet
But life is so cruel 'cause I let it be”
Everybody out here
They wanna live somewhere else

I wish I could find a place
And stay there by myself
Bit by bit I swear I think I'm losing
All this city's confidence
Everybody out here
They wanna live somewhere else
I wish I could find a place
Stay there by myself
Bit by bit I swear I think I'm losing
All this city's confidence
I swear I've lost
All this city's confidence
