Blur - Far Away Island
It's on my mind
As the light fades
What you doing tonight?
Are you dancing?
Are there new tunes to play?
As I sail further away from you
★ Chorus ★
Far away island, I miss you
I know you think I must be lost now, but I’m not anymore
★ Verse 2 ★
It's on my mind
We're away now
Down, down into the shadows
I’m cut to pieces
I'm dancing alone with the moon and the white whale
★ Chorus ★
Far away island, I miss you
I know you think I must be lost now, but I'm not anymore
★ Instrumental Break ★
★ Chorus ★
Far away island, I miss you
I know you think I must be lost now, but I'm not anymore

Biography
Their rivalry with contemporaries Oasis culminated in one of the most famous chart battles in British history – one which Blur won when “Country House” outsold Oasis’s “Roll With It” by 50,000 copies, giving Blur their first #1 single in the process.
Following this, the group embarked on a new musical direction, deliberately heading away from their trademark Britpop sound and instead taking influences from American alternative rock, a sound which earned them new fans in the US and gave them their second UK #1: “Beetlebum” in 1997.
However, due to rising tensions among the band members and the eventual departure of guitarist Graham Coxon, Blur went on a hiatus in 2003. Frontman Damon Albarn stayed in the music business both as a solo artist and with his cartoon band Gorillaz and supergroup The Good, the Bad and the Queen, and Coxon also continued making music. Meanwhile, Drummer Dave Rowntree went into politics, and bassist Alex James runs his own cheese farm.
Blur got back together in 2008 and toured, but fans had to wait until 2015 before their comeback-album The Magic Whip was released.
