Lyrics
Here there lies
Under southern skies
A young man loved by someone
Known unto God
Here there died
Under foreign skies
A young man loved by someone
Known unto God
Long to remain underground
The boy who lost his name
Weeping mother is homeward bound
She failed to find his grave
I can hear the wind and sea
Forever they will be here to guard our sons
Here there lies
Under southern skies
A young man loved by someone
Known unto God
Here there died
Under foreign skies
A young man loved by someone
Known unto God
Long to remain underground
The girl who lost her love
She will never hear the sound
Of the boy who won't return
I can hear the wind and sea
Forever they will be here to guard our sons
Known only unto God
Writer(s): Jean Jacques Burnel, Brian Duffy, John Ellis, David Paul Greenfield, Paul Roberts
