Enya - Evacuee lyrics

Each time on my leaving home

I run back to my mother's arms

one last hold and then it's 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 it's over.

Days will pass, your words to me

it seems so long, eternity

but I must wait until it's over
