Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This could be the saddest dusk I've ever seen
Turn to the miracle, high alive
My mind is racing, as it always will
My hands tired, my heart aches
I'm half a world away here, and I had sworn
[Verse 2]
To go it alone, and hold it along
Haul it along, and hold it
Go it alone, hold it along
And hold
[Verse 3]
Oh, lonely deeps and hollows
Are half a world, half a world away
My shoes are gone, my life spent
I had too much to drink
I didn't think, I didn't think of you
I guess that's all I needed
[Verse 4]
To go it alone, and hold it along
Haul it along, and hold it
Blackbirds, backwards, forwards, and fall
And hold
[Verse 5]
Oh, this lonely world is wasted
Pathetic eyes, high alive
The blinded eye that's turned to see
This storm, it came up strong
It shook the trees, and blew away our fear
I couldn't even hear
[Verse 6]
To go it alone, and hold it along
Haul it along, and hold it
Go it alone, and hold it along
And hold
[Verse 7]
Go it alone, and hold it along
Haul it along, and hold it
Blackbirds, backwards, forwards, and fall
And hold
[Verse 8]
Oh, this could be the saddest dusk I've ever seen
And 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
