Steemit Open Mic Week 65 - Somewhere Only We Know

lucybanks (61)in #openmic • 6 years ago

Hey guys,

Here is my latest entry to the Steemit #openmic so I hope you enjoy.

I wanted to put up a Christmas song (I'm sure I will do a proper one at some point tomorrow), however I chose this because it plays every year on adverts and it's always been a favourite of mine.

It was originally from the band Keane, but a cover was made by Lily Allen - most likely for the John Lewis adverts.

I hope you enjoy :)

[Verse 1]
I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river, and it made me complete

[Hook]
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

[Verse 2]
I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

[Hook]
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

[Bridge]
And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?

[Hook]
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

[Bridge]
And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?

[Verse 3]
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know
