Midge Ure - Homeland lyrics

Sometimes I find that the ghost from behind me won't go You'd think by this time You'd be gone from my mind But it isn't so Sometimes I hear your voice ringing clear on the radio Hearing you tell words that I knew so well Not so long ago And though it's changed for us all I know you will always be near And though you watch from afar I know where you are You walk the homeland I remember that night Of that year when the tears wouldn't clear my eyes I'd seen it before Like a dream I'd ignore It was no surprise I tried to pretend that the madness would end and you'd realise That all that was left was the whisper of d**h and your children's cries And though it's changed for us all I know you will always be near And though you watch from afar I know where you are You walk the homeland You slipped away like snow in a warm hand You welcomed that warm hand You made it too easy
