Far away where the soft winds blow
Far away from it all
There is a place you go
Where teardrops fallFar away in the stormy night
Far away and over the wall
You are there in the flickering light
Where teardrops fall
Hammersmith Odeon

We banged the drum slowly
And played the fife lowly
You know the song in my heart
In the turning of twilight
In the shadows of moonlight
You can show me a new place to startI’ve torn my clothes and I’ve drained the cup
Strippin’ away at it all
Thinking of you when the sun comes up
Where teardrops fallBy rivers of blindness
In love and with kindness
We could hold up a toast if we meet
To the cuttin’ of fences
To sharpen the senses
That linger in the fireball heatRoses are red, violets are blue
And time is beginning to crawl
I just might have to come see you
Where teardrops fall

I’ve always loved this song. Great live version, and rare.
