lyrics
I have one song left, the last chance to speak of treasures I seek
in the morning light. In Manchester shine that won’t shout too bright. I will
Raise my voice to cars and old clocks to the weather that never stops
And dream aloud, but I won’t get too far and I won’t reach my stars
And I won’t reach my stars in this crowd
As a part time human, don’t think I’m alone
I pretend to be working when all I can do is lie down CHORUS
Tomorrow you don’t have to face it alone
So pretend to be working and join in the chorus from home.
The days will lie, as the future runs week to week stamping it’s feet on the
Truth feels high; I can’t use this door when this door is upon the floor
And Its trapping my head from the sky.
CHORUS
Chorus at home chorus at home chorus for home X4
Chorus at home written for you for when you’re alone
There’s a song unsung, the ringing dies down in this killing town
It feels old today, forget all the memories, and wipe clean the centuries
And ask no wage, lie in your bed and find it well read
For stories will spread from the page
CHORUS
A Chorus For home, a chorus for home, for home X6 ?
A Chorus For home, a chorus for home, for when you’re alone
in the morning light. In Manchester shine that won’t shout too bright. I will
Raise my voice to cars and old clocks to the weather that never stops
And dream aloud, but I won’t get too far and I won’t reach my stars
And I won’t reach my stars in this crowd
As a part time human, don’t think I’m alone
I pretend to be working when all I can do is lie down CHORUS
Tomorrow you don’t have to face it alone
So pretend to be working and join in the chorus from home.
The days will lie, as the future runs week to week stamping it’s feet on the
Truth feels high; I can’t use this door when this door is upon the floor
And Its trapping my head from the sky.
CHORUS
Chorus at home chorus at home chorus for home X4
Chorus at home written for you for when you’re alone
There’s a song unsung, the ringing dies down in this killing town
It feels old today, forget all the memories, and wipe clean the centuries
And ask no wage, lie in your bed and find it well read
For stories will spread from the page
CHORUS
A Chorus For home, a chorus for home, for home X6 ?
A Chorus For home, a chorus for home, for when you’re alone
