We took a boat over Lake Geneva. |
| [00:58.62] |
It was raining all night long, |
| [01:02.73] |
We were lucky and we saw no enemy, |
| [01:06.15] |
And came from Switzerland poor refugees, |
| [01:10.17] |
Far from the guns of war, |
| [01:12.27] |
We said goodbye to it all; |
| [01:20.49] |
They brought us in to a nurse's station, |
| [01:24.33] |
Half a mile behind the lines, |
| [01:25.65] |
Oh Lord, how my heart was breaking, |
| [01:31.77] |
To see the children, and the walking wounded, |
| [01:36.00] |
Hoping for a ticket home, |
| [01:39.96] |
And say goodbye to it all; |
| [01:46.50] |
I woke up on a cold blue morning, |
| [01:49.71] |
To see her there, standing right beside me, |
| [01:53.10] |
Long years since I left her at the borderline, |
| [01:57.69] |
And how she found me I'd never know, |
| [02:01.68] |
But we decided there and then, |
| [02:03.51] |
To say goodbye to it all; |
| [02:05.79] |
Say goodbye to it all, |
| [02:23.16] |
Say goodbye to it all.... |
| [02:31.56] |
Took a train from Paris to the ocean, |
| [02:35.10] |
Found a small hotel by the coast, |
| [02:39.36] |
As we walked along the beaches of Normandy, |
| [02:42.60] |
We came to Juno, Omaha and Gold, |
| [02:46.71] |
And whispered a prayer for the boys, |
| [02:51.90] |
Who said goodbye to it all; |
| [02:52.71] |
Now we've got our own place by the water, |
| [03:01.29] |
And I have a job in the old hotel, |
| [03:04.89] |
She is ready and she's hoping for a daughter, |
| [03:08.28] |
Well I don't mind, we've made our choice. |
| [03:12.42] |
We've got all the time in the world, |
| [03:17.07] |
We said goodbye to it all, |
| [03:19.62] |
We said goodbye to it all. |
| [03:20.52] |
Say goodbye to it all, |
| [03:21.12] |
Say goodbye to it all, |
| [03:21.63] |
Say goodbye to it all, |
| [03:22.44] |
Say goodbye to it all. |
