The Nigel Purcell Trio - Here or there (Remastered) Lyrics




Sitting here by the quayside
Atlantic is calling to me
Say it's time for adventure
There is no place to be
Sailors have told me a story
A city that touches the sky
I have no reason to stay here
So I say all my goodbyes

I arrive at Ellis island
Liberty's looking at me
Skeletons reaching skyward
Skeletons here on the street
I haven't got any money
I spent it all getting here
I sleep next to the ocean
Excited and full of fear

I join them all here
Earn an honest pay
I join them all here
Find somewhere to stay

I do the same as I did
Except in a foreign land
They say I would be happy
But I have no future plans
Day to day existence
I might as well resign
I hear they are calling up
I'll sign the dotted line
