Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Each time on my leaving home
I run back to my mother's arms
One last hold and then it's over
[Verse 2]
Watching me, you know I cry
You wave a kiss to say goodbye
Feel the sky fall down upon me
[Verse 3]
All I am, a child with promises
All I have are miles full of promises of home
[Verse 4]
If only I could stay with you
My train moves on, you're gone from view
Now I must wait until it's over
[Verse 5]
All I am, a child with promises
All I have are miles full of promises of home
[Verse 6]
Days will pass, your words to me
It seems so long, eternity
But I must wait until it's over
