Anywhere But Here Songtext
von Oval Opus

Spending time on a northbound train
Well, riding these rails, it all looks the same
When you′re leaving it all behind
Out the window, the sun's going down
And through my reflection, I stare out the ground
Passing by a mile at a time

I′m only here for the ride
One step ahead of you

If I wait for the loneliness
You might catch up with me
So I'm moving anywhere but here
And if I keep myself out of this
I might be on top for once
So I run to a safe place to hide
Anywhere but here


Moving on with this fugitive life
Well, I did my time under your lock and key
Now I'm leaving you behind
Dust the hounds, we′ll cover my tracks
Well, broke off the cuffs, just the clothes on my back
Time keeps passing a mile at a time

I′m only here for the ride
One step ahead of you

If I wait for the loneliness
You might catch up with me
So I'm moving anywhere but here
And if I keep myself out of this
I might be on top for once
So I run to a safe place to hide
Anywhere but here

Someday you′ll catch me
And talk of our good times
But these are the best times
Out here on the road
And your judge and jury
Will never convict me
I'm over you

If I wait for the loneliness
You might catch up with me
So I′m moving anywhere but here


And if I keep myself out of this
I might be on top for once
So I run to a safe place to hide

If I wait for the loneliness
You might catch up with me
So I'm moving anywhere but here
And if I keep myself out of this
I might be on top for once
So I run to a safe place to hide

Start a new life
Anywhere but here
Oh, anywhere but here
