Tom Walker - Fly Away With Me

 Tom Walker - Fly Away With Me

I'm strumming on the corner
about to catch last the train home
I'll have to jump the barriers
so can you spare a penny for my thoughts
I've been praised upon the pavements 
passers by don't pay much.
chased away by neighbours,
seen things you couldn't make up
if these streets could talk
they'd tell a story or two
I'll paint a picture for you 

I can tell you what it feels like
to lose your home on a cold night
can you see the blood in my red eyes
have another toke, we'll forget life

So come and fly away with me 
to a place where we could be anyone we wanna be 
we can bottle up our fear 
brew a taste so sweet
knock us off our feet 
and we'll 
burn our troubles 
inhale them all 
paint the future on a fractured wall 
so come and fly away with me
to a place where we could anyone we wanna be

Still in the station when I wake up
I missed the last train home 
jump back over the barriers
no one's got a penny for my flaws 
I'm asleep upon the pavement 
passersby don't say much, tutted at by strangers
dreamt things you'd never dream of 
if these streets could talk they'd tell a story or two 
I'll paint a picture for you

I can tell you what it feels like
to lose something you love on a cold night 
as the cars roll by under the street lights 
there's only one way I can forget life

So come and fly away with me 
to a place where we could be anyone we wanna be 
we can bottle up our fear 
brew a taste so sweet
knock us off our feet 
And We'll,
burn our troubles 
inhale them all 
paint the future on a fractured wall 
so come and fly away with me 
to a place where we could anyone we wanna be

Woooo woo woo woo 
woooo woo woo woo 
we could be anyone we wanna be
woooo woo woo woo 
woooo woo woo woo 
we could be anyone we wanna be

These streets I'm walking 
they've started talking to me 
can't you see? 
there's only one way outta here 
we have to face the things we fear 
and we could be anyone we wanna be 
yeah we could be anyone we wanna be 

So come and fly away with me 
to a place where we could be anyone we wanna be 
we can bottle up our fear 
brew a taste so sweet
knock us off our feet 
and We'll, 
burn our troubles 
inhale them all 
paint the future on a fractured wall 
so come and fly away with me 
to a place where we could be anyone we wanna be

Woooo woo woo woo 
woooo woo woo woo 
we could be anyone we wanna be
woooo woo woo woo 
woooo woo woo woo 
we could be anyone we wanna be
