No Greater Love

There`s storm clouds amassing over in the west up above the moor<br>The city shines in grey, mills closing down on the valley floor<br>All you can do here is survive, grit your teeth and just stay alive<br>And never understand <br><br>The young ones they dance with fire in their hearts until the years go by<br>And older, defeated they stare in their beer at closing time<br>No greater love could there ever be <br>Than what I feel for you, what you gave to me<br>You saved my life from this<br><br>While kings are in their counting houses, people just wait here in silent rows<br>They spat and they jeered in a last desperate fear as they watched us go<br>Remember how we turned and ran<br>Heads into the wind running hand in hand<br>We laughed until we cried<br>So many tears . . .
