Travelling Alone - Passenger
Australian man Scandinavian tan
Kicking stones round a square
Sat for a while and carved out a smile
As if someone would care
Said I'm a long way from the Gold Coast
For this dive ever known
Oh and this just ain't my home
It was my wife my dear but she's no longer here
She left me travelling alone
I never heard silence ring out like a bell
I never heard silence
Like last night in my expensive hotel
Well I'm loving a shadow
I'm trying to catch the rain
But I never heard silence till I heard it today
She walked out of the hotel
I could still smell the smoke
Of the burning heart left inside
She said men are all assholes
And life's a bad joke
She laughed and started to cry
See ten years with this man
And a life time of plans
Oh and I loved him to his bones
Now I have lines on my skin
And he has traded me
He left me travelling alone
Well I never felt silence hear me like a train
I never felt silence like blood
Caused through my veins
Well I'm loving a shadow
And I'm trying to catch the rain
I never heard silence till I heard it today
I never felt silence till I felt it today
