Les Misérables( Les Miserables )

Turning

Did you see them going off to fight?
Children of the barricade who didn't last the night?
Did you see them lying where they died?
Someone used to cradle them and kiss them when they cried.
Did you see them lying side by side?

Who will wake them?
No one ever will.
No one ever told them that a summer day can kill.
They were schoolboys, never held a gun.
Fighting for a new world that would rise up like the sun.
Where's that new world now the fighting's done?

Nothing changes, nothing ever will.
Every year another brat, another mouth to fill.
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 turn to hours and the hours turn to years.
Nothing changes, nothing ever can.
Round and round the roundabout and back where you began.
Round and round and back where you began.
