Lyrics
Did you see them going off to fight?
Children of the barricade who didn't last the night?
Did you see them lying where they died?
Someone used to cradle them and kissed them when they cried
Did you see them lying side by side?
Who will wake them?
Noone ever will
Noone ever told them that a summer day can kill
They were schoolboys never held a gun
Fighting for a new world that would rise up like the sun
Where's that new world now the fighting's done?
Nothing changes
Nothing ever will
Every year another brat, another mouth to fill
Same old story, what's the use of tears?
What's the use of praying if there's nobody who hears?
Turning, turning, turning, turning, turning through the years
Turning, turning, turning through the years
Minutes into hours and the hours into years
Nothing changes, nothing ever can
Round and round and round and round and back where you began
Round and round and back where you began
Writer(s): Herbert Kretzmer, Claude-michel Schonberg, Alain Albert Boublil
