about

'Way Beyond This’ was originally written for “What Am I Worth?’ by circus company Extraordinary Bodies.
After the tour I reworked it for the album using Michael Clark’s beautiful vocal take.
It is the second single release from the album 17 POSTCARDS

lyrics

WAY BEYOND THIS
Music and lyrics by Ted Barnes

I’m way beyond this
I’m up in the clouds
Caught in a world I don’t understand

And all I can see
Are crowds all around
Staring at the space where I used to be

And I’m not the one that I used to know
You take my hand
And you pass the key
And I say goodbye
And I say goodbye
To my part of the deal

Crashing back down
There’s no turning round
I’m tearing apart what I used to know

But I m not alone like I used to be
You take my hand
And you pass the key
And I say goodbye
And I say goodbye
To my part of the deal
