TURN AROUND (Bob Jackson)
[from Head First CD - recorded 1974 - released U.S. 2000]

As we've turned these empty pages
I have seen the sweat and pain
Do we have to waste these ages
Going through it all again?
Let's forget all the dreams we had
They were dreams of yesterday

When will we ever learn?
When will we turn around?
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?

All that's left now is to keep on hoping
We can change the die that's cast
I remember how they laughed then
But I knew it wouldn't last
I've tried so hard to close my eyes
But I just can't close my mind

When will we ever learn?
When will we turn around?
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?

One thing's for certain while we're here
Nothing's for sure, only the fear

[guitar solo (Pete Ham)]

I've tried so hard to close my eyes
But I just can't close my mind

When will we ever learn?
When will we turn around?
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?

Hey, yea.
