pressgang - flanders lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
out in the meadow, one morning in may
when the meadows were pearly with dew
it’s there i met with this fair young lady
and the flowers in her hands were blue
i heard her singin’ a sad song
making the [?] ring

[pre+chorus]
oh, my lover’s a soldier
and he’s in flanders fighting for the king

[chorus]
and i wish the wars were over
and i wish the wars were done
for my lover’s gone to flanders
and i wish the wars were done

[verse 2]
now, i love robin, but you’re far away
far across the blue
and thousand bluebells and woodlands here
would never take the place of you
his jacket is red, his cheeks are too
red as the red, red rose
[pre+chorus]
and he sings with the girl
and he left behind us
after the battle he goes

[chorus]
and i wish the wars were over
and i wish the wars were done
for my lover’s gone to flanders
and i wish the wars were done

[bridge]
and when will the bells for the homecoming ring?
and when will the bells for the homecoming ring?
and when will the bells for the homecoming ring?
and we will all rejoice
instead, i’ll be true to your robin man

[chorus]
and i wish the wars were over
and i wish the wars were done
for my lover’s gone to flanders
and i wish the wars were done
oh, i wish the wars were over
and i wish the wars were done
for my lover’s gone to flanders
and i wish the wars were done
