Don't Walk Away - The Chain Gang of 1974

In the fields where I saw you first

Rising like the sun

I saw it setting in your eyes

In the fields where I saw you first

Rising like the sun

I saw it setting in your eyes

Take my hand, let’s run

To the land our fathers built

Washed in their blood

For this life I’d give up

To stand in your love

I’ve waited all my life

To know you in this way

I’ve waited all my life

I ask and I pray

Don’t walk away

Don’t walk away

Don’t walk away

Don’t walk away

In the distance I heard you cry

For me to come home

Even though I’m a thousand miles

You’re not alone

And to the land our fathers built

Bricks in their hands

For this life I’d give up

To stand as your man

I’ve waited all my life

To know you in this way

I’ve waited all my life

I ask and I pray

Don’t walk away

Don’t walk away

Don’t walk away

Don’t walk away
