|
On the turning away |
|
from the pale and downtrodden |
|
and the words they say |
|
wich we won't understand |
|
\" don't accept that what's happening |
|
is just a case of others' suffering |
|
or you'll find that you're joining in |
|
the turning away\" |
|
It's a sin that somehow |
|
light is changing to shadow |
|
and casting it's shroud |
|
over all we have known |
|
unaware how the ranks have grown |
|
driven on by a heart of stone |
|
we could find that we're all alone |
|
in the dream of the proud |
|
On the wings of the night |
|
as the daytime is stirring |
|
where the speechless unite |
|
in a silent accord |
|
using words you will find are strange |
|
and mesmerised as they light the flame |
|
feel the new wind of change |
|
on the wings of the night |
|
No more turning away |
|
from the weak and the weary |
|
no more turning away |
|
from the coldness inside |
|
just a world that we all must share |
|
it's not enough just to stand and stare |
|
is it only a dream that there'll be |
|
no more turning away? |
