Jerry Leger - That Ain't Here Lyrics

I was sobbing while I was laughing
Kept on going as you were leaving
You were muttering I was crazy or something like that
And the blue moon was still beautiful
I took a walking path but kept looking back
To see no excitement on your face

And the carnival wants your soul
And the stars won’t let you go
But you have places to know
That ain’t here

I stuck my thumb out on a scorched road
Forgot about what you said before
That I loved you like a sinner wouldn’t know how
And you remembered life’s lesson
That most people are just full of it
But I’ve seen what our dreams can really do

So, we sang our favourite song
that everyone grew up on
Ya, we sang it all night long
‘Cause that ain’t here

That ain’t here, that ain’t here
I won’t be filled with fear
That ain’t here

Through the morning
Beyond the sunset
I heard more crying from the innocent
And I brought out a rainbow with everything to lose
And the temple was in ruins
And the news was just blowing in
That no one knew anything
Who would dare

Believe it to be true
What this world is coming to
But we’ll be fine
Me and you
‘Cause that ain’t here
And we sang our favourite song
That everyone gave up on
Ya, we sang it all night long
‘Cause that ain’t here

That ain’t here, that ain’t here
I won’t be filled with fear
That ain’t here, that ain’t here, that ain’t here
