1973 Lyrics - Kidsticks - Beth Orton

You got a certain way I swear of sticking it in 

Even though you only ever lose or you win 

I always said I'd wait and wait and wait just to see 

But I've been waiting here since nineteen-seventy-three 

It only happens elsewhere 

It only happens elsewhere 

It only happens elsewhere 

It only happens elsewhere 

Looking back in time right now to seventy-two 

I remember all the stupid things we'd do 

Sitting 'round and speeding like its seventy-nine 

There was always somewhere else I had to be in my mind 

Swimming in my mind 

Swimming in my mind 

Swimming in my mind 

In an electric sky 

Looking below 

Well, it changed my dreams 

And now nothing is quite what it seems 

It only happens elsewhere 

It only happens elsewhere 

It only happens elsewhere 

It only happens elsewhere 

You got a certain way I swear 

Of sticking it there 

Ridiculously obvious 

And never less aware 

I always said I'd wait and wait and wait just to see 

I've been waiting here since nineteen-seventy-three 

It only happens elsewhere 

It only happens elsewhere 

It only happens elsewhere 

I didn't do it I swear 

I wasn't even there 

Elsewhere 

Elsewhere 

I must have been elsewhere 

I must have been elsewhere
