Dreams Of Leaving Someone stopped the clock when we should have started early If we miss the morning meeting, our lives will be in danger Someone's trying to stop us There is someone in our party It is someone with a grudge and they won't let us reach the border Our lives are in his hands We pay with Krugerands The currency of pain to help us leaving While back in our homeland, the ones who make a stand are taken from their homes And no-one hears of them again I felt I had to come here I thought things would be better The situation's changed, but I find I'm still resented Someone wants my job It is someone in this building Someone's spreading rumours and I don't feel I can stay here I think I'm going north And now's the time to leave The people there they say are good to strangers And if I do my best and try to settle in I'm sure I can be just like someone's neighbour I'm sure I can be just like someone's neighbour words and music by The Human League published by Virgin Music (Publishers) Ltd.
