Time Was Leading Us Home
Turn your face away from the light
Turn your face away
Turn your face away from the light
Turn your face away
Turn your face away from the light
Turn your face away

And we formed a circle on the floor
No one spoke a single word
Held together in their perfect dream
Wrapped in cellophane and cream
My it was was helplessly approaching us
Day would then complete itself

And time was leading us to ourselves
Time was leading us on
Time was leading us to ourselves
Time was leading us on

Damien placed his hat upon my head
As I put my hand upon
Mary's cuddly little teddy bear
Who was sitting silently

And time was leading us to ourselves
Time was leading us on
Time was leading us to ourselves
Time was leading us on
Gradually the mood was breaking down
As we grinned our final grins
And goodbye was said most perfectly
We were young and satisfied

And time was leading us to ourselves
Time was leading us on
Time was leading us to ourselves
Time was leading us on

Time was leading us to ourselves
Time was leading us on
Time was leading us to ourselves
Time was leading us on

...the light
Turn your face away
Go find yourself a fantasy world
Find another way

All you have to give is needed
Don't you spare a single smile
Stay young, as you are
Young as you are

So
Turn your face away from the light
Turn your face away
Turn your face away from the light
Turn your face away, yippee
Turn your face away from the light
Turn your face away
