Billy Bragg - Distant Shore Lyrics
Everyone knows
That there's no place like home
But I'm just seeking refuge
In a world full of storms
Washed up on a distant shore
The natives are hostile
Whatever I say
The thing they fear most is
That I might want to stay
By their side on a distant shore
Can't go home anymore
I escape my tormentors
By crossing the sea
Memory
Far away on a distant shore
Can't go home anymore

Billy Bragg Distant Shore Comments
Human rights arise from human wrongs. Everyone chooses sooner or later, so let's choose to right the wrongs. But let's do it with love and kindness.
A beautiful song made achingly pertinent by the pictures of poor Aylan. Thank you, Billy.
RIP Aylan Kurdi
