Push & Pull

Oh I’m sat here on this platform
And the train is up and gone
They say home is where the heart is
But that ain’t where I’m going
And this cold breeze is blowing
‘neath my jacket to my skin
There’s a final destination
I just can’t see where that is

“Oh now Mama dear” she sang to me
“The road and you, seem stronger now than ever
I know I’m used to being back here on my own
But it doesn’t mean that I don’t always want you right here”
Right here

Well been living from this suitcase
Since I can’t remember when
Oh the band has taken me places
That only dreams can lend
I’ve got my pockets full of crumpled notes
And yesterday’s shortcomings
Coz writing’s the only way I know
To say just how I’m feeling

“So my darling love I sing for you
Yes the road and me, we’ve been travelling far forever
I know I’m used to being out here on my own
But it doesn’t mean that I don’t always want you right here”

Push and pull the music brings
