PINK FLOYD - On The Turning Away lyrics

rate me

On the turning away<br>From the pale and downtrodden<br>And the words they say<br>Which we won't understand<br>Don't accept that what's happening<br>Is just a case of others' suffering<br>Or you'll find that you're joining in<br>The turning away<br><br>It's a sin that somehow<br>Light is changing to shadow<br>And casting it's shroud<br>Over all we have known<br>Unaware how the ranks have grown<br>Driven on by a heart of stone<br>We could find that we're all alone<br>In the dream of the proud<br><br>On the wings of the night<br>As the daytime is stirring<br>Where the speechless unite<br>In a silent accord<br>Using words you will find are strange<br>And mesmerized as they light the flame<br>Feel the new wind of change<br>On the wings of the night<br><br>No more turning away<br>From the weak and the weary<br>No more turning away<br>From the coldness inside<br>Just a world that we all must share<br>It's not enough just to stand and stare<br>Is it only a dream that there'll be<br>No more turning away?
