"Another speaker was Mr Enoch Powell who was sacked from the shadow cabinet earlier this year, for his extreme and publicly stated views on immigration."

".. one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin but by the content of their character."

 

I knew you needed a friend.

I knew you needed some blue skies.

You need some laughter again,

Til magic returns to your blue eyes.

You're lost in the circle of pain.

Where's it all going?

Each day is the same,

Where are you going?

 

Say hello. Say hello.

You're never alone.

 

Something inside of yourself,

When darkness approaches, your silence.

Freedom's forgotten her name.

Nothing makes sense you don't complain.

Everything started to fall.

Where's it all going?

Can't make any sense of it all.

Where am I going?

 

Say hello. Say hello.

You're never alone.

one of the finest songs ever made.

Lately, lately I've seen you in your dream

Lost in a clouded mind

Held down by all the things that seem so real

The world you can't leave behind

 

You've made all of the money you could spens

You're begging for something more

Behind the prison tou call your home my friends

The light in the endless dark

 

Lately, you've followed your fears under the bed

And fell for a hundred years

Into the arms of a wounded melody

The promise that love's still here

 

You held a cynical world like God's bruised fruit

Chopped from a sacred tree

It's us, the enemy we fought all these years

The stories of you and me

 

So we hurry, go faster and faster to find that we've ran our whole life

Forgoing the sweetest view

There's a buzz like a lightbulb up to our ears

Promise that love's still here

 

Retrace the steps in the snow to find your friend

'Cause the child had melt so fast

Big dreams, the future you taste on summer's time

Having it just won't last

 

Right here, we've all got the answer in our heart

If we could just let that go

Lifetimes of beautiful sunday church bell girls

The junkies upon the floor

 

So we hurry, go faster and faster to find that we've ran our whole life

Forgoing the sweetest view

We could argue forever and ever, be clear

Promise that love's still here

 

If forever and ever and ever we find that we've ran our whole life

Forgoing the sacred view

There's a buzz like a lightbuld up to our ears

Promise that love's still here

The promise that love's still here

The promise that love's still here

The promise that love's still here

For the eastern eyes of a life reborn

When the western skies of a broken dawn

In the first embrace of a haunted smile

With the hopeful eyes of an alien child

 

I was taken by the hand from the ocean to the sand

From the half-light to the day

I have come to find my way

I have come to find my way

 

In the burning sheets of a neighbor's pain

With the sweat of a night and the summer rain

In the cry of birth and the death of fear

For the hope of a light and the joy of tears

 

I was taken by the hand from the ocean to the sand

From the half-light to the day

I have come to find my way

I have come to find my way

 

From the tainted screen of a surgeon mind

From the tear-stained face of a haunted kind

From the shade of death and the flame of life

From the [unverified] blade of a surgeon's knife

 

I was taken by the hand from the ocean to the sand

From the half-light to the day

I have come to find my way

I have come to find my way

 

Eastern, eastern eyes, your eyes

For these eastern, eastern, eastern, eastern eyes

For these eastern, eastern eyes

For these eastern eyes

 

Eastern eyes, eastern eyes, eastern eyes

Eastern, eastern, eastern eyes

Eastern, eastern, eastern eyes

Eastern, eastern eyes

Though things change, the future's still inside of me

We must remember that tomorrow comes after the dark

So you will always be in my heart, with unconditional love......
