Intro
C# A#m Fm G# (repeat)
C# A#m Fm G#
Each time on my leaving home
C# A#m Fm G#
I run back to my mother's arms,
C# A#m Fm G# C#
One last hold and then it's over.
Watching me, you know I cry,
You wave a kiss to say goodbye,
Feel the sky fall down upon me!
F#maj7 Fm A#m B F#
All I am, a child with promises
D#m7 Fm A#m B F# G#
All I have, are miles full of promises of home.
If only I could stay with you,
My train moves on, you're gone from view,
Now I must wait until it's over.
Days will pass, your words to me,
It seems so long; eternity,
But I must wait until it's over.
