Lyrics for Song: On The Turning Away 
Lyrics for Album: A Momentary Lapse Of Reason [1987]
  
               
  28356>On the turning away
  From the pale and downtrodden
  And the words they say
  Which we won't understand
  "Don't accept that what's happening
  Is just a case of others' suffering
  Or you'll find that you're joining in
  The turning away"
 
 
  It's a sin that somehow
  Light is changing to shadow
  And casting it's shroud
  Over all we have known
  Unaware how the ranks have grown
  Driven on by a heart of stone
  We could find that we're all alone
  In the dream of the proud
 
 
  On the wings of the night
  As the daytime is stirring
  Where the speechless unite
  In a silent accord
  Using words you will find are strange
  And mesmerized as they light the flame
  Feel the new wind of change
  On the wings of the night
 
 
  No more turning away
  From the weak and the weary
  No more turning away
  From the coldness inside
  Just a world that we all must share
  It's not enough just to stand and stare
  Is it only a dream that there'll be
  No more turning away?
