Anywhere but Here Songtext
von Kayak

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
