Did you see them going off to fight?
 Children of the barricade
 Who didn’t last the night
 They were schoolboys
 Never held a gun
 Fighting for a new world
 That would rise up like the sun
 Where’s the new world
 Now the fighting’s done
 Who will wake them?
 No one ever will
 No one ever told them
 That a summer day can kill
 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 the roundabout
 And back where you began
 Round and round and back where you began
