The Other Side Of The World by Tindersticks
On the other side of the world is an island
The shape of a woman
And I know this place
From there, there is no escape
Y'know she held me
Not too tight for she would break me
Not too loose for I would slip away
To the other side of the world
Y'know she held me
Like I could leave at any time
And I could breathe into the wire
And tell myself I'm free
When it turned under my feet
And buildings and the trees left with the wind
Left me standing
In a dirty city street, where I'm a stranger to
everyone
And everyone is a stranger to me
