ELSEWHERE

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elsewhere isn’t really better
Even if sometimes the sky might be a bit bluer
Elsewhere is just like here
Like everywhere when happiness
Isn’t showing up

To think that I searched for you
As far as my dreams could take me
At the end of my hells
Elsewhere, always elsewhere
Not seeing that just a few steps away
You were offering me the universe

'Cause that damn sun was right there
Right there on my street
My love, tell me, what did I look like
Searching for you in the clouds?
What a waste of time
What a waste of time

Elsewhere is just an illusion
We think we’re in paradise
While we’re just going in circles
Elsewhere we’re so small
We never find our place
Elsewhere isn’t a life
But I imagined you
Unreal, lost in a world too ugly
And in the end, I know
That the farther I went, the more I loved you
That the more I lost you

'Cause that damn sun was right there
Right there on my street
My love, tell me, what did I look like
Searching for you in the clouds?
What a waste of time
What a waste of time

Elsewhere I was nowhere
Time passed without me
I was in the fog
Elsewhere it was winter
But I can finally say
That elsewhere was yesterday

My love, my love
My love, what a waste of time
My love, my love
My love, what a waste of time
