Lyrics

The place I love is a million miles away
It's too far for the eye to see
Still it's me at least, and you can't come there
No one is allowed at all
Only animals that love, will always, only, ever could be
And it's always at the back of my mind
The place I love is overgrown now
With beautiful moss and colourful flowers
And goldfish that swim in a pool, there's a small brick wall

With neon lighting controlled by lightning
I'm making a stand against the world
There's those who would hurt us if they heard
And its always in the back of my mind

The place I love is no where near here
Not within a mile of those trendy do's
Where dogsbodies pick you up, and graciously give you a lift

With cherished thoughts and bitterness
I'm making a stand against the world
There's those who would hurt us if they heard
And that's always in the back of my mind
