Within a Mile of Home

歌詞

Dust falls on the empty halls of my old school Where the memories fade like the casualty a forgotten fool Now wide eyed has become the blind unspoken rule Deeper only deep is now the word the lesson's not the answer you once heard Don't turn your back on me don't ever let me down she said I picked you up each time Before you hit the ground Your selfish face is now erased when someone mentions you And the darkness that you left Has all but stepped aside With disappearing clouds the sun arrives Within a mile of home Within a mile of home Oh worry oh my worry has it been that long The whistle keeps on blowing but the tune's long gone His empty frame cannot explain there's nothing left inside So sing to me a song from yesterday When laughter filled the tears that we now make Don't turn your back on me don't ever let me down she said I picked you up each time Before you hit the ground Your selfish face is now erased when someone mentions you If only you had seen What I now see And turned the corner where you would have been Within a mile of home Within a mile of home oh So sing to me sing me a song a little song from yesterday Ah sing to me sing me a song a song from yesterday And when the laughter drank these tears before the promises that now slip away the laughter drank Don't turn your back on me Don't turn your back on me Don't ever let me down Don't turn your back on me Don't turn your back on me Don't ever let me down We are within a mile We are within a mile within a mile of home We are within a mile We are within a mile within a mile of home We are within a mile within a mile within a mile within a mile of home We are within a mile within a mile within a mile within a mile of home yeah We are within a mile We are within a mile within a mile of home We are within a mile We are within a mile within a mile of home within a mile of home
