On the Turning Away

Accordi On the Turning Away

SOL
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
