Robert Forster — Leave Here Satisfied lyrics

Lyrics

I just wanted to run and hide
Felt a drop of water deep down inside
I could go but I wouldn’t Leave Here Satisfied
A neighbour came in and said who are you. Me? I’m one of a million friends that
can come when a party ends. He said they’re gone — I asked him long.
No he said «not long at all.»
I just wanted to run and hide
Felt a drop of water deep down inside
I could go but I wouldn’t Leave Here Satisfied
As I stood upon this place as sad as a gambler’s face every impulse in me said
Run. There was dust on the piano keys, dust on the backyard trees,
dust on the doorlocks but not on me. The bookcase stood there and I really
don’t care that none of my books now stand there. Where are you now,
where are you now. Where are you now my friend
I just wanted to run and hide
Felt a drop of water deep down inside
I could go but I wouldn’t Leave Here Satisfied
Visitations hit me like a blast. If you put a detector to the past would it
pick out the good bits that would last. I think so, and when you can let me
know where you are and so. Leave Here Satisfied
