“FAR FROM HOME “(HARRISON)
I remember Cider with Rosie, back when cider was new.
We drank on the roof of the White House Pub in Guildford.
Alice and the rabbit were frozen in stone as they dug to the other side. Steep cobbled roads, Sailor Jerry and Coke, I was cold in my jacket and tie.
I was only 18 then in coffee shops trying to crack my code I was only 18 then and I was blazing a trail out on my own, I raised the sail and headed Far From Home.
Headed Far From Home.
Boston guidebooks in my shoebox room at the Y.M.C.A.
Sonic the Hedgehog made me such a slob
I whistled “The Great Escape”.
I’d go to T.G.I’s to pretend that I was back in the United States, Or take the underground to meet a girl up in town
But it wasn’t the same.
I was only 18 then in coffee shops trying to crack my code I was only 18 then and I was blazing a trail out on my own, I raised the sail and headed Far From Home.
Headed Far From Home.
London town is burning down in my memory London town is coming around again...
I remember Cider with Rosie, back when cider was new. I remember Cider with Rosie, back when cider was new. I remember Cider with Rosie, back when cider was new.
I was only 18 then in coffee shops trying to crack my code I was only 18 then and I was blazing a trail out on my own, I raised the sail and headed Far From Home.
Headed Far From Home.

“MEANINGLESS” (HARRISON)
There are 19 candles lighting up the kitchen My friends are blowing up balloons Photographs are snapping fast and clear Another perfect yearbook in my mind
Without love, without the hope of love I can’t continue
I gotta pull myself back up
Without love, without the hope of love I’m losing focus
and all the little treasures I’ve been building up forever just seem So Meaningless to me.
I’ve got endless faith in the man that I’m becoming
It seems my dreams are coming true
Give me dancing shoes and I’ll belt out the blues all day But there’s still an open space
Without love, without the hope of love I can’t continue
I gotta pull myself back up
Without love, without the hope of love I’m losing focus
And all the little treasures I’ve been building up forever just seem So Meaningless to me.
Someone to sing to, someone to share my treasure with Someone who’ll listen and kiss me goodnight
Someone in the passenger’s seat when I’m driving round town I’m full of fear cause all I see are years -
Without love, without the hope of love I can’t continue
I gotta pull myself back up
Without love, without the hope of love I’m losing focus and All the little treasures I’ve been building up forever just seem So Meaningless to me.
All the little treasures I’ve been building up forever just seem So Meaningless to me.

“ATLAS SHAGGED” (HARRISON)
Hot light hits the white walls and bounces off her skin, It’s 7 in the morning.
I want her to cuddle me but she’s got things to do,
She wants to go running to keep her body young and supple, I’ll grow old and fat.
Can’t we stay in bed forever,
Drink Gatorade and let our brains relax?
I’m not getting out of bed,
Atlas Shagged and toppled off of the tracks.
Cold sweat hits my forehead, the boss just called again. It’s 11 in the morning.
I’m not going to work today, I’m suddenly depressed.
Ben and Jerry’s for breakfast doesn’t take her image away, I’ve really met my match!
Can’t we stay in bed forever,
Drink Gatorade and let our brains relax?
I’m not getting out of bed,
Atlas Shagged and toppled off of the tracks.
She’s taken over my head. She’s taken over my head. She’s taken over my head.
Can’t we stay in bed forever,
Drink Gatorade and let our brains relax?
I’m never getting out of bed,
Atlas Shagged and toppled off of the tracks. Atlas Shagged and toppled off of the tracks. Atlas Shagged and toppled off of the tracks. Atlas Shagged and toppled off of the tracks.
