Spring 1919 - Barry Coope/Jim Boyes/Lester Simpson
The longest night of darkest dreams
Heralds the new tomorrow
The morning light of bright sunbeams
Can only soften sorrow
From deepest winters harshest cold
There comes a hint of warming gold
And spring returns with tales untold
The frozen earth to borrow
Where winters snow has barely gone
A snowdrop proudly glistens
The robin sings it's joyful song
If only you would listen
And fractured earth is turning green
Where only brown and red were seen
And agony has turned serene
Where sanity went missing
The farmer looks to find his home
Among the fields of battle
He cannot sing to mark his word
Nor even call his cattle
His only comfort is the sky
Which stays the same as years go by
But through the tears that dim his eye
The misty canons rattle
Hero's return to foreign lands
Have memories to smoulder
They'll turn their hands to peaceful work
Not like their lonely brother
Who work with gas and shows them how
Each time he yokes his careful plow
And with the sweat of his own brow
He'll venture to recover
In Flanders fields the poppy grow
As part of every season
Through winters bless the wounds still show
As if there was a reason
To show the world that hid in pain
That spring will come and cold again
But underneath the scars remain
And will for generations
The longest night of darkest dreams
Heralds the new tomorrow
The morning light of bright sunbeams
Can only soften sorrow
From deepest winters harshest cold
There comes a hint of warming gold
And spring returns with tales untold
The frozen earth to borrow
The longest night of darkest dreams
Heralds the new tomorrow
The longest night of darkest dreams
Heralds the new tomorrow
The longest night of darkest dreams
Heralds the new tomorrow
The longest night of darkest dreams
Heralds the new tomorrow
The longest night of darkest dreams
Heralds the new tomorrow
