On the Turning Away (Remix 2019)

[Verse 1]

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 all the suffering

Or you’ll find that you’re joining in

The turning away"

[Verse 2]

It’s a sin that somehow

Light is changing to shadow

And casting its 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

[Verse 3]

On the wings of the night

As the daytime is stirring

Where the speechless unite

In a silent accord

Using words you will find arе strange

Mesmerizеd as they light the flame

Feel the new wind of change

On the wings of the night

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]

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?

[Guitar Solo]
