Lyrics When We Had Faces - Gavin Clark & Ted Barnes

They said the hand of God delivered the blow
But all that I know, It wasn't him that nearly killed you
I let you down, I never carried you home
I left you alone, To fend there for yourself

I see you out sometimes enjoying the square
Your mothers are with faces filled with sadness
For all that you gained, You still look hungry & weak
When I speak, I'll remember where I'm from

Well, it's a long way back to the midway
It's a long way back to the (?¿?)
It's a long way back to the Coliseum
When we had faces, Jude
When we had faces, Jude

I heard they filled your head with story's of joy
Said I could destroy, The good things laid before you
I worked it out, But knew that you would never hear
It's strange how a year, Can cancel out a life

Well, it's a long way back to the midway
It's a long way back to the (?¿?)
It's a long way back to the Coliseum
When we had faces, Jude
When we had faces, Jude

Sometimes I go back, but I never stay
Just wasting away, The world that we grew up in
One day you will see me down on the Street
And when you hear me speak
You'll remember where you're from
