Look Away

Look Away - Big Country

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
