Still Life In Mobile Homes - Japan, David Sylvian, Richard Barbieri

Sometimes the comfort of a room

Sometimes I’m quite alone

I pack to leave a foreign town

It seems I’ll never know

But I’ll rent new accommodation

We’ll make plans from mobile homes

The slow boat’s moving with the tide

Drifting far from shore

It’s the nature of this country life

I’ve never known before

Still we’ll make plans for buildings and houses

From mobile homes

Plant life, my life

Still life in mobile homes

Plant life, my life

Still life in mobile homes

The sound of wildlife fills the air

So warm and dry

The bushland burns in this southern heart

Like an open fire

Still we’ll make plans for buildings and houses

From mobile homes

In mobile homes

Plant life, my life

Still life in mobile homes

Plant life, my life

Still life in mobile homes

Plant life, my life

Still life in mobile homes

Plant life, my life

Still life in mobile homes

A voice screams from heaven

As we start to sail

It’s the calling of the fatherland

I used to know so well

But I’ll find new accommodation

We’ll make plans from mobile homes

Plant life, my life

Still life in mobile homes

Plant life, my life

Still life in mobile homes

Plant life, my life

Still life in mobile homes

Plant life, my life

Still life in mobile homes

Plant life, my life

Still life in mobile homes

Plant life, my life

Still life in mobile homes
