Send seasonal greetings from nowhere
I’m working and playing away
Remember the moment of leaving
Yesterday, yesterday
Roll through these towns
Over seas, over mountains
Lucky to work
When work is scarce
Father must feed
Must provide
He must fountain
Left my heart within your care
Upside: love you
Downside: miss you
I’m here you are there.
Upside: working
Downside: hurting
Hear my echo
Dancing bear
Connected to you by a mobile
What I can’t do, I can say
Away from you I’m feeling empty
I am raining, I am grey
Upside: love you
Downside: miss you
I’m here you are there.
Upside: working
Downside: hurting
Hear my echo
Dancing bear
My works about words
And sounds you can taste
Violins and trumpets
Chocolate cakes
Here are some words
Words you can taste
Here are some words
Kissing your face
Upside: love you
Downside: miss you
I’m here you are there.
Upside: working
Downside: hurting
Hear my echo
Dancing bear
I’m working and playing away
Remember the moment of leaving
Yesterday, yesterday
Roll through these towns
Over seas, over mountains
Lucky to work
When work is scarce
Father must feed
Must provide
He must fountain
Left my heart within your care
Downside: miss you
I’m here you are there.
Upside: working
Downside: hurting
Hear my echo
Dancing bear
What I can’t do, I can say
Away from you I’m feeling empty
I am raining, I am grey
Downside: miss you
I’m here you are there.
Upside: working
Downside: hurting
Hear my echo
Dancing bear
And sounds you can taste
Violins and trumpets
Chocolate cakes
Here are some words
Words you can taste
Here are some words
Kissing your face
Downside: miss you
I’m here you are there.
Upside: working
Downside: hurting
Hear my echo

This song really relates to me right now.
I go to university miles away from my home town. I went home for the holiday and met a guy, we instantly clicked, spent the whole holiday together I had to go back to university. we are miles apart from each other. We talk every day. (Connected to you by a mobile) We can't visit each other because we are too busy working (I�m here you are there. Upside: working Downside: hurting )
All I can think about is how much I miss him. I hope we see each other soon, it would be a great disappointment if distance tears us apart. Its great having him (Upside: Love you) but all we want to do is see each other (Downside: Miss you)
Tim Booth, you are a star
Tim Booth said in the concert he gave in Mexico that he wrote this song after reading an article about how mexican workers have to leave their homes, to go north, crossing the Bravo River, to go work on the California Strawberry Fields.
is "bear" a symbol?
