Story Behind The Song
I wasn't happy with my life, feeling like it was going nowhere. I wasn't happy with my lover, feeling like he was not really there. I was inclined to dream up another life, another lover. Dreams have a way of coming true quickly and rather than have the new dream take me up I decided instead to go look for my main man in one of the places I can usually find him.
Song Description
Moving, tactile tune speaks to desire for something more, the feeling that time is running out, the need for one's lover.

Lyrics
Elsewhere
Ooh, I?m blue, dirt on my pages
Starry night, hold tight
A bitter place at the moment
Anybody want to share this dreamer?s addiction
To cool fiction restless prediction
I?m off again, I?m elsewhere
I?m off again, I?m elsewhere
Ooh, I?m blue, fading in stages
I?m deep adrift
With other places, other people, other dreams
Anybody want to share this dreamer?s addiction
To true fiction, reckless conviction
I?m far away, I?m elsewhere
I?m far away I?m elsewhere
One flicker, one flame,
One siren off in the far away
Ooh, I look for my lover in a place or two
I think I?ll look for my lover in a place or two
One flicker, one flame,
One heartbeat away from the devil?s game
I think I?ll look for my lover in a place or two
I think I?ll look for my lover in a place or two
