[Verse 1]
It's time to move along
And leave the past behind me
My heart was like a stone
But now it's beating brightly
[Chorus]
The past's a foreign land, I did my best, you understand
[Verse 2]
Beneath the moon and stars
I loved her most profoundly
I wandered in the night
But now I'm sleeping soundly
[Chorus]
The past's a foreign land, I did my best, you understand
The past's a foreign land, I did my best, you understand
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
The past's a foreign land, I did my best, you understand
The past's a foreign land, I did my best, you understand
[Instrumental]
Foreign Land was written by Norman George Blake.
Foreign Land was produced by Teenage Fanclub.
Teenage Fanclub released Foreign Land on Tue May 23 2023.
Norman Blake:
The song is about moving forward, not dwelling on the past. We shot the video in Hamilton Mausoleum, near Glasgow. Given that the album is called Nothing Lasts Forever we thought it would be appropriate to shoot a video inside a tomb.
