"On the turning away From the pale and downtrodden And the words they say Which 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 mesmerized 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?"
Give me your eyes That I might see the blind man kissing my hands The sun is humming My head turns to dust as he plays on his knees As he plays on his knees
And the sand And the sea grows I close my eyes Move slowly through drowning waves Going away on a strange day
And I laugh as I drift in the wind Blind Dancing on a beach of stone Cherish the faces as they wait for the end Sudden hush across the water And we're here again
And the sand And the sea grows I close my eyes Move slowly through drowning waves Going away On a strange day
My head falls backs And the walls crash down And the sky And the impossible Explode Held for one moment I remember a song An impression of sound Then everything is gone Forever
