we journey to the sea
and i am always at the wheel
well that's what you say to me
and can you tell me
when we reach the water
and can you tell me
when my face is wet

look, look in the mirror
for the bounce and spark
of the butt you've thrown
don't turn around
you're a long way from home

you look in my wardrobe
and tell me what i've done
you say that my mind
is as dark as trodden boards
you say i don't understand
but at least i know it
do you see yourself in me
and hide away in fright?

look, look in the mirror
for the bounce and spark
of the butt you've thrown
don't turn around
you're a long way
you're a long way
you're a long, long way from home
