Burnt Out Family Home

A moment′s glance
Just taken in
No second chance
Through thin layers of romance

And maybe it's time to give in
And I′m glued to two penny towers
Past the roadside flowers
I stand in silence alone
By the burnt out family home

This moment in time
This moment to stand
I'll live and die for this land
Though I can do with a helping hand

And you can take me home
As the world rushes by
In the blink of a tired eye

Over blood-soaked promenades
Past the barns
And the bars
Dodging flashing blue cars

All lighting my way
Along the battered esplanades
And worn down barricades
As this world rushes by
And my life rushes by
In the blink of a tired eye

And you can take me home
And you can take me home
And you can take me home
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home
