Lyrics Far Away - Fly My Pretties, Mel Parsons

Far Away

Well Wellington’s a small town
But it packs alotta punch
There’s talent oozing from the walls
That eat ideas for lunch
It can get a little claustophobic even if you try
Fly, my pretties, fly
Well I reckon this town’s brilliant
In lots of different ways
But it doesn’t have the money
Or the glamour of LA
I’m sure one day you’ll make it in
The stars shining bright
If you have to go, then fly
Fly away
As long as you come back some day
Fly away
Hope to see you round some day
Well I’ve lived here my whole life
And sure the living’s sweet
But what I want’s the whole world
Just to listen to my beats
The only way to do this is to travel far and wide
So if you to go, then fly
They say that there’s a braindrain
I reckon that it’s true
… to cruising offshore just to make a buck or two
It’s a little sad that we can’t do it all right here
But if you have to go, …
Fly away
As long as you come back some day
Fly away
Hope to see you round some day
