i have walked a thousand miles
i have worked as fast as i can
and i have raised our precious child to be a man
but i would never turn my back on your love

i have gone up and down
yeah i have wandered from place to place
and i have raised my weary hand to my face
but i would never turn my back on your love

is there anybody there who knows me?
is there anybody ther who knows now
that i will be home soon?
and i would never turn my back on your love

when the sun is going down
and there are cars against the sky
i have seen my hometown in your eyes
but i would never turn my back
yeah i am learning to face the facts
no i would never turn my back on your love
