Homeland Songtext

von Midge Ure

Sometimes I find
That the ghost from behind me won't go
You'd think by this time
You'd be gone from my mind
But it isn't so
Sometimes I hear your voice ringing clear
On the radio
Hearing you tell words that I knew so well
Not so long ago

CHORUS :
And though it's changed for us all
I know you will always be near
And though you watch from afar
I know ehere you are
You walk the homeland

I remember that night
Of the year when the tears wouldn't clear my eyes
I'd seen it before
Like a dream I'd ignore
It was no surprise
I tried to pretend that the madness would end
And you'd realise
That all that was left was the whisper of death
And your children's cries

CHORUS

You slipped away
Like snow in a warm hand
You welcomed that warm hand
You made it too easy
