The Sparrows And The Nightingales Lyrics - The Echoing Green

How long have you been free 

In this world of hate and greed 

Is it black or is it white 

Let's find another compromise 

And our futures standing still 

We're dancing in the spotlight 

Where is the leader who leads me 

I'm still waiting... 

Leaving home... 

And God is on your side 

Dividing sparrows from the nightingales 

Watching all the time 

Dividing water from the burning fire... inside 

Move in circles walk on lines no human being in sight 

Calm the winds and calm the seas 

Lets try another kind of peace 

Who fights this holy civil war 

A million men in uniform 

Wo ist der fhrer der mich fhrt? 

Ich warte immer noch...! 

Leaving home... 

And God is on your side 

Dividing cruelty from tenderness 

Watching all the time 

Dividing fiction from reality 

God is on your side... 

And God is on your side 

Dividing presence from our history 

Watching all the time 

Dividing deaf men from the listening ones 

And God is on your side 

Dividing soldiers from the fisherman 

Watching all the time 

Dividing warships from the ferryboats 

God is on your side...
