Within a Mile of Home
Flogging Molly

Dust falls on the empty halls of my old school
Where the memories fade like the casualty, a forgotten fool
Now wide eyed has become the blind unspoken rule
Deeper only deep is now the word
The lesson's not the answer you once heard

Don't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down
She said, I picked you up each time before you hit the ground
Your selfish face is now erased when someone mentions you
And the darkness that you left has all but stepped aside
With disappearing clouds the sun arrives

Within a mile of home, within a mile of home

Oh, worry o' my worry has it been that long?
The whistle keeps on blowin' but the tune's long gone
His empty frame cannot explain there's nothing left inside
So sing to me a song from yesterday
When laughter filled the tears that we now make

Don't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down
She said, I picked you up each time before you hit the ground
Your selfish face is now erased when someone mentions you
If only you had seen what I now see
And turned the corner where you would have been

Within a mile of home, within a mile of home

So sing to me, sing me a song, a song from yesterday
And when the laughter drank these tears before
The promises that now slip away

Don't turn your back on me, don't turn your back on me
Don't ever let me down
Don't turn your back on me, don't turn your back on me
Don't ever let me down

We are within a mile, we are within a mile
Within a mile of home
We are within a mile, we are within a mile
Within a mile of home

We are within a mile, we are within a mile
Within a mile of home
We are within a mile, we are within a mile
Within a mile of home

Take me home
