James Morrison - Is There Anybody Home lyrics

rate me

I've been moving in the wrong direction

I've been looking for something that's gone

Is there anybody who can hear me?

Is there anybody home?

Is there anybody home?

Tell me, where are all the happy people?

Where is the simple song?

Even the birds have lost their music

Tell me what is going on

Well, tell me what is going on

And we live our lives through magazines

And see our neighbours on tv

Hope someday that we can be like them

And ain't it sad that deep inside

We lost ourselves and don't know why

I look up to the sky when I'm alone

And I wonder is there's anybody home

Everybody's gonna say it's crazy

They say that it can't be done

When did we all stopped dreaming

About a world where everyone belongs

Where everyone belongs

The children lost their childhood

The mothers have lost their strength

The fathers have to keep on working

Till the day the money's spent

Oh, before they drop and die

Well, we turn our back on what is real

We don't even know how it feels

Really want to buy a bigger car

Baby ain't it true that deep in you

This feeling lives and lingers too

You look up to the sky when you're alone

And you wonder is there's anybody home

Tell me, tell me, tell me what is going on

We live our lives through magazines

We see our neighbours on tv

Hope someday we'll be like them

We lost ourselves and don't know why

I look up to the sky when I'm alone

And I wonder is there anybody home

Is there anybody home
