Within a Mile of Home

I think this is a fara more upbeat song carrying the same message as "The Son Never Shines on Closed Doors".

It's about Dave's anguish of having been gone from Ireland for so long.

When saying: "Don't turn your back on me Don't ever let me down"...

It could be him talking to his home/homeland/family?... or his home/homeland/family? talking to him.

Either way, all is forgiven as a return nears... "Within a mile of home"
