Somewhere Back There - Banfi

I tried to smile as he tried not to cry

Said I’d go around mornin' light

He said, «No need for drawn out goodbyes»

Despite the void, I tend to believe

As moment by moment slips out of reach

At least we’re eternal in once having been

Tryin' for solid ground in a watery atmosphere

In the field behind the Millers whisperin' in the night

And under the beat of the August rain

We could tell tomorrow’s weather

From the sound of the viaduct’s passin' train

As I travel back to somewhere gone

I watch the evening passin' on

To a place beyond this short refrain

And somewhere back there, yeah

Maybe we both remain

Together we both remain

Sleepless I walk, the moon’s on his way

Echoin' light in his beautiful chains

Echoes of you singin' vogue up the lane

Some questions I’ve dealt with

One or two I ignore

They keep me in bed in the mornin'

Hangin' above like a tremblin' sword

Tryin' for solid ground with your hand on the mantelpiece

Somehow you pulled the whole thing down

And woke up half the night

And under the ache of the risin' sun

We could tell tomorrow’s weather

From the sound of the Crewood Common guns

As I travel back to somewhere gone

I watch the evening passin' on

To a place beyond this short refrain

But somewhere back there, yeah

Maybe we both remain

Together we both remain

As I travel back to somewhere gone

I watch the evening passin' on

To a place beyond this short refrain

But somewhere back there, yeah

Maybe we both remain
