Lyrics

I've been sleepwalking (I've been sleepwalking)
Through the railway station (through the railway station)
Wake me up (wake me up)
When they call my destination (when they call my destination)
Where I've been (where I've been)
I was bound to leave behind (I was bound to leave behind)
All device (all device)
And all disease was mine (and all disease was mine)
Oh, speeding out of reach
Oh, you're the one I had to meet
I never wanted to go home
(The wanderlust will carry your song)
There was nothing there for me
(The wanderlust will carry your song)
In a high rise on my own
(I've been on the brinks of highways for so long)
Looking out in a mirrored balcony
(The wanderlust will carry your song)
Will there ever be a place for you and me?
(The wanderlust)
I'm rolling in (I'm rolling in)
For a seven day weekend (seven day weekend)
Living up again (living up again)
To my old reputation (my old reputation)
Can you cover me (can you cover me)
'Cause I got no armour ('cause I got no armour)
Keep moving on down the line
Keep on going further (keep on going further)
Oh, speeding out of reach
Oh, you're the one I had to meet
I never wanted to go home
(The wanderlust will carry your song)
There was nothing there for me
(The wanderlust will carry your song)
In a high rise on my own
(I've been on the brinks of highways so long)
Looking out in a mirrored balcony
(The wanderlust will carry, carry, carry your song)
I don't know where to go, now I got nowhere to hide
(Nowhere to go, nowhere to be)
I don't know where to go, now I got nowhere to be
(Oh, wanderlust will carry your song)
Walk fifty city blocks down but they always find us
(The wanderlust will carry your song)
Will there ever be a place for you and me?
(The wanderlust will carry your song)
Will there ever be a place for you and me?
