about

Track 2 from The Driftwood Project, a five-track EP released one track at a time throughout 2021

lyrics

On approach of a new skyline
Unfamiliar to my eyes
But it's greyness it belies what is in store
For a group of hardly men at all
Un-sober and so free
In such a place to be
The very most of who we can be for tonight

[Chorus]
All I want to be is there or anywhere
Anywhere but here
Strangers and myself and those are dearest to me
Moments most sincere

Where the humid air reminds me that
I'm so far from my home
For no reason but to roam and be alive
And a story like no other has
Made every place to be
What it's become for us to see
In this ever growing tree the human tale

[Chorus]

To be anywhere but here
To be anywhere at all
To be on a square I've never seen
In a bar I've never been
Ordering a drink in a language I don't speak
That would mean the world to me
That would mean the world to me
Just anywhere at all that isn't here

[Chorus]
