《No Man’s Land》歌词

[00:00:00] No Man's Land - Peter

[00:00:16] Well how do you do private William Mcbride

[00:00:22] Do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside

[00:00:28] I'll rest for a while in the warm summer sun

[00:00:34] I've been walking all day

[00:00:37] And I'm nearly done

[00:00:42] And I see by your gravestone you were only 19

[00:00:48] When you joined the glorious fallen in 1916

[00:00:54] And I hope you died quick and

[00:00:57] I hope you died clean

[00:01:00] Or William Mcbride was it slow and obscene

[00:01:07] Did they beat the drum slowly

[00:01:10] Did they sound the pipes lowly

[00:01:13] Did the rifles fire o'er you as they lowered you down

[00:01:19] Did the bugle play the last post and chorus

[00:01:25] Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest

[00:01:43] Well the sun it shines now

[00:01:46] On these green fields of france

[00:01:50] The warm wind blows gently

[00:01:53] And the red poppies dance

[00:01:56] The trenches have vanished now under the plow

[00:02:02] No gas and no barbed wire no guns fire now

[00:02:09] For here in this graveyard

[00:02:12] It's still no man's land

[00:02:15] And the countless white crosses

[00:02:18] In mute witness stand

[00:02:21] To man's blind indifference to his fellow man

[00:02:27] And a whole generation

[00:02:30] Who butchered and damned

[00:02:34] Did they beat the drum slowly

[00:02:38] Did they sound the pipes lowly

[00:02:41] Did the rifles fire o'er you as they lowered you down

[00:02:46] Did the bugle play the last post and chorus

[00:02:52] Did the pipes play the flowers o' the forest

[00:03:00] Well I can't help but wonder now Williem Mcbride

[00:03:06] Do all those who lie here know just why they died

[00:03:12] Did you really believe them

[00:03:15] When they told you the 'cause

[00:03:18] Did you really believe this war would end all wars

[00:03:26] But the suffering the sorrow the glory the shame

[00:03:32] The killing the dying

[00:03:35] It was all done in vain

[00:03:38] For William Mcbride it's all happened again

[00:03:43] And again and again and again and again

[00:03:51] Did they beat the drum slowly

[00:03:54] Did they sound the pipes lowly

[00:03:57] Did the rifles fire o'er you as they lowered you down

[00:04:02] Did the bugle play the last post and chorus

[00:04:08] Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest
