Each time on my leaving home
i run back to my mothers arms
one last hold and then its over.
Watching me, you know i cry,
you wave a kiss to say goodbye.
feel the sky fall down upon me!
All i am,
a child with promises
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 its over.
Days will pass, your words to me,
it seems so long; eternity,
but i must wait until it's over.
