Broken Blossoms Lyrics - Dusty Springfield

(Adtpt. T. Springfield / Gray) 

I walk where once the grass was green 

And mourn the lark that sings no more 

What bird could sing whose eyes have seen 

Broken blossoms on the field of war? 

And as they lie there in the sun 

How unimportant now it seems 

Just who has lost and who has won 

When with them have died so many dreams 

They dreamed that endless hate would end 

Unceasing fear, one day, would cease 

They dreamed that foe would turn to friend 

And eternal war would turn to peace
