Time Was Leading Us Home Songtext

von Peter Sarstedt

Turn your face away from the light,
Turn your face away

Turn your face away from the light,
Turn your face away

And we formed a circle on the floor
No one spoke a single word

Held together in their perfect dream,
Wrapped in cellophane and cream

Night was helplessly approaching us
Day would then complete itself

And time was leading us to ourselves,
Time was leading us home

Timewas leading us to ourselves,
Time was leading us home

Damien placed his hat upon my head
As I put my hand upon

Mary's cuddly little teddy bear
Who was sitting silently

And time was leading us to ourselves
Time was leading us home

Time was leading us to ourselves,
Time was leading us home

Gradually the mood was breaking down
As we grinned our final grins

And goodbye was said most perfectly
We were young and satisfied

And time was leading us to ourselves
Time was leading us home (×3)

Turn your face away from the light
Turn your face away

Go find yourself a fantasy world,
Find another way

All you have to give is needed
Don't you spare a single smile

Stay young as you are
Young as you are

So, turn your face away from the light
Turn your face away (×3)
