Paroles: Big Country. The Seer. Look Away.

This time we run
This time we hide
This time we draw
On all the fire we have inside

We need some time
To find a place
Where I can wipe away
The madness from your face

Our name is out
Our name is known
Our name is everywhere
But who knows where we're flown

I never meant
To kill a man
But I will show you
How to live like no one can

So look away, look away
Hide your eyes from the land
Where I lie cold

Look away, look away
From the lies in the stories
That were told

Look away, look away
From the love that I hide
Way down deep in my soul

I met you wild
In a snowed up town
When I was waiting tied
And bound to be sent down

Then I broke loose
You weren't around
So I raised banks
And trains until I tracked you down

Now look away, look away
Hide your eyes from the land
Where I lie cold

Look away, look away
From the lies in the stories
That were told

Look away, look away
From the love that I hide
Way down deep in my soul

You followed me
When I said no
You lay with me when there was
Nowhere safe to go

We made some friends
But now it's done
I always knew that we would
Never find the sun

So look away, look away
Hide your eyes from the land
Where I lie cold

Look away, look away
From the lies in the stories
That were told

Look away, look away
From the love that I hide
Way down deep in my soul

Now look away, look away
Hide your eyes from the land
Where I lie cold

Look away, look away
From the lies in the stories
That were told

Look away, look away
From the love that I hide
Way down deep in my soul
