Lyrics Anywhere But Here - Kayak

Anywhere But Here

Your name
The union of mere letters
That shouldn’t really matter to me now
Your face
Once altered my perspective
Now distant and deceptive, yet somehow
A memory my heart will not allow
Your voice
Though even died down to a whisper
Still could be sending shivers down my spine
Your touch
Once cut through my defences
Then robbed me of my senses and my mind
Now take a look at the mess you left behind
My dreams were neatly banned
To where they’ve lost all meaning
Where days have no beginning
And nights don’t seem to end
To shelter from the rain
Still I’m drowning in compliance
By some conspiracy of silence
In this shattered house of pain
From here
Life seems a foolish display
Of world in shades of grey
My dreams have all been banned
To where they’ve lost all meaning
Where days have no beginning
And nights don’t seem to end
To shelter from the rain
Still I’m drowning in compliance
By some conspiracy of silence
In this shattered house of pain
And from here
Life seems an armour of steel
With nothing left to feel
And still
Your image is so vivid and clear
Anywhere but here
