Leave Here Satisfied

Robert Forster

Found myself in an empty house
Calling out, "Is anyone there?"
Thinking someone must be here somewhere
No one stepped up at all
No one I could see
No one tapped my shoulder and said "it's me"

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

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
Wouldn't leave here satisfied

Now 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 door locks
But not on me, not on me
There was dust on the door locks
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
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

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
Wouldn't leave here satisfied
