Look Away by Big Country Lyrics

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
