R.E.M. — Half a World Away

[Verse 1] This could be the saddest dusk I've ever seen I turn to a miracle, high-alive My mind is racing, as it always will My hands tired, my heart aches I'm half a world away, here in my head [Chorus] Sworn to go it alone and hold it along Haul it along and hold it Go it alone, hold it along And hold [Verse 2] Oh, lonely deeps and hollows Are half a world, half a world away My shoes are gone, my life is spent I had too much to drink I didn't think, I didn't think of you I guess that's all I needed [Chorus] To go it alone and hold it along And haul it along and hold it Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall And hold [Verse 3] Oh, this lonely world is wasted Pathetic eyes, high-alive Blind eye that turns to see The storm it came up strong It shook the trees and blew away our fear I couldn't leave it here [Chorus] To go it alone, hold it along Haul it along and hold it Go it alone and hold it along And hold Go it alone and hold it along Haul it along and hold it Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall And hold [Verse 1] Oh, this could be the saddest dusk I've ever seen Turn to a miracle, high-alive My mind is racing, as it always will My hands tired, my heart aches I'm half a world away to go
