Lyrics
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
Worry o' my worry has it been that long The whistle keeps on blowin' 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
So 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
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..
