Augie March - There Is No Such Place Lyrics
There is no such place, o yes I have seen it tooJust a little different from how you do,A river winding blue among the dunes and a marble bedA sun that doesn't set but settles.There is no such place.If I lower mine to yours would you kiss me on the face?If you're looking for an unmarked place,There is no such place -Blasted in appearance and a composite of fearful minutesFrozen in the waking instantLonging, things I long for,Peaceful nights, strangers at the door,O come in, come in,You've been here before.There is no such place, so perhaps we have a reasonFor our long and falling face,Above all it would be warm but we would keep our heads allClear as Winter, storms would be a sight to make us shiverBut without the chillOf thinking all is hither-thither -Longing, Things I long for,Peaceful nights, strangers at the door,O come in, come through the door,You've been here before,You've been here beforeThere is no such place, o yes I have seen it tooJust a little different from how you do,A house upon a hill with no windowsJust a can upon the sillTo catch your tearsTo feed your garden.
