Queen - '39 lyrics

(Verse 1)
In the year of '39
A simple year, the volunteers
In the days when the lands were few
Here the ships sailed out,
'nto the blue and sunny morn'
Sweetest sight ever seen.

And the night followed day
And the storytellers say
That the score brave souls inside
Though many a'lonely day
Sailed across the milky seas
Ne'er looked back, never feared
Never cried.

(Chorus 1)
Don't you hear my call
Though you're many years away
Don't you hear me callin' you

Write your letters in the sand
For the day I take your hand
In the land that our grandchildren knew

(Verse 2)
In the year of '39
Queen - '39 - http://motolyrics.com/queen/39-lyrics.html
Came a ship in from the blue
The volunteers came home that day

And they bring good news
Of a world so newly born
Though their hearts so heavily weigh

For the earth is old and grey
Little darlin', we'll away
But my love, this cannot be

Oh so many years are gone
Though I'm older but a year
Your mother's eyes, from your eyes,
Cry to me.

(Sing Chorus 1)

Don't you hear my call
Though you're many years away
Don't you hear me callin' you

All your letters in the sand
Cannot heal me like your hand

For my life
Still ahead
Pity me.
