A Sort of Homecoming

Lyrics

[Verse 1] And you know it's time to go Through the sleet and driving snow Across the fields of mourning Lights in the distance [Verse 2] And you hunger for the time Time to heal, desire time And your earth moves beneath Your own dream landscape [Chorus] Oh, oh, oh On borderland we run I'll be there I'll be there Tonight, a high road A high road out of here [Verse 3] The city walls are all gone down The dust, a smokescreen all around See faces ploughed like fields that once Gave no resistance [Verse 4] And we live by the side of the road On the side of the hill as the valley explodes Dislocated, suffocated The land grows weary of its own [Pre-Chorus] Oh, come away, oh come away, oh come Oh come away, say I Oh come away, oh come away, oh come Oh come away, say I [Chorus] Oh, oh, oh On borderland we run And still we run We run and don't look back I'll be there I'll be there Tonight Tonight [Bridge] I'll be there tonight I believe I'll be there, so high I'll be there tonight Tonight Oh come away, oh come away, oh come Oh come away, say I [Verse 5] The wind will crack in wintertime Bomb-blast lightning waltz No spoken words Just a scream [Chorus] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh Tonight we'll build a bridge Across the sea and land See the sky, the burning rain She will die and live again Tonight Tonight [Verse 6] And your heart beats so slow Through the rain and falling snow Across the fields of mourning To the light that's in the distance [Verse 7] Ah, don't sorrow, no, don't weep For tonight at last I am coming home I am coming home
