“Home You Go” and “Lifted up” written by Leigh Harrison © APRA 2002

lyrics

Always looking for someone, someone I can't seem to find
Not just any kind of man, but one whose plan
Doesn't include messing with my mind - messing with my body's just fine
But there's always a punter doing a line
And he says "You have an amazing aura. What star sign are you?"
And I say

Home you go Romeo
Don't you know I'm not going to love you, love you, love you, love you
Home you go Romeo
Don't you know I'm not going to love you, love you, love you, love you
You're short, you're bald and you're paunchy
And even I'm not feeling that raunchy

Went out Friday night with Karren, we were having a drink with friends
Sitting and laughing and fooling and faffing and making like we hadn't a care
Like no-one else was even there
And then this little man appeared, I swear and he said "Hi - haven't we met before?"
And I said

Saturday night I was downtown, just Holly and Stef and me
We were cruising and schmoozing and using and floozing and seeing what we could see
Trying to get our drinks for free
When this little man came up to me and he said "Grrr. Nice tits sweetheart."
And I said



Lord I want to be lifted up, I need to feel your love overflow my cup
I want to be surrounded by your peace and have my troubled heart put at ease

Looking around me I got nothing but
Troubles from one end of the bathtub to the other
Someone pulled the plug out and they crawled up the drain
They take turns to taunt me, take care to exploit me
Humiliation's worse than going insane
Have you ever known failure that holds you in a vice
Shows you no mercy, cuts you like a knife
Till you reach out for someone, anyone ...

When I walk down the street the whole
World turns away quietly whispering my name
Think they know where I'm going 'cos they know where I've been
I'd like to surprise them with a change in direction
But every road I take seems to lead where I've been
Have you ever been tied down on the railway line of fate
Hoping the future might this once be late
Calling out for someone, anyone …
