Текст песни The Eve Of The War & Forever Autumn Medley - Jeff Wayne , Richard Burton
Narrator:
For
3 days
I
fought
my
way
along
roads
packed
with
refugees,
The
homeless
burdened
with
boxes
&
Bundles
containing
there
valuables.
All
that
was
of
value
to
me
was
in
London
but
by
the
time
I
Reached
there
little
red
brick
house
Carrie
& her
father
were
gone.
Journalist,
The
summer
sun
is
fading
as
The
year
grows
old
& Darker
days
are
drawing
near
The
winter
winds
will
be
much
colder
Now
you′re
not
here
I
watch
the
birds
fly
south
across
the
autumn
sky
&1 by
1 they
disappear
I
wish
that
I
was
flying
with
them
Now
you're
not
here
Like
the
sun
through
the
trees
you
came
to
love
me
Like
a
leaf
on
a
breeze
you
blew
away
Through
autumn′s
golden
gown
we
use
to
kick
our
way
You
always
loved
this
time
of
year
Those
fallen
leaves
lie
undisturbed
now
Cause
you're
not
here
Cause
you're
not
here
Cause
you′re
not
here
Narrator.
Fire
suddenly
lept
from
house
to
house.
The
population
panicked
& ran,
& I
was
swept
along
with
them,
aimless
& lost
without
Carrie.
Finally
I
headed
eastward
for
the
ocean
& my
Only
hope
for
survival,
a
boat
out
of
England
Journalist
Like
the
sun
through
the
trees
you
came
to
love
me
Like
a
leaf
on
a
breeze
you
blew
away
A
gentle
rain
falls
softly
on
my
weary
eyes
As
if
to
hide
a
lonely
tear
My
life
will
be
forever
autumn
Cause
you′re
not
here
Cause
you're
not
here
Cause
you′re
not
here
Narrator
As
I
hastened
through
Covent
garden,
Blackfriars
& Billingsgate
More
& more
people
joined
the
painful
exodus
Sad,
weary
woman,
their
children
stumbling
in
the
street
with
tears
Their
men
bitter
& angry,
The
rich
rubbing
shoulders
with
beggars
& outcasts
Dogs
snarled
& whined
the
horse's
bits
were
covered
with
foam
& Here
& there
were
wounded
soldiers
as
helpless
as
the
rest
We
saw
tripods
wading
up
the
Thames
Cutting
through
bridges
as
though
they
were
paper
Waterloo
bridge,
Westminster
bridge,
1 appeared
above
Big
Ben,
Ulla!
Never
before
in
the
history
of
the
world,
Had
such
a
mass
of
human
beings
moved
& suffered
together
This
was
no
disciplined
march,
It
was
a
stampede
Without
order
& without
a
goal
6 million
people,
unarmed
& unprovisioned
driving
headlong
It
was
the
beginning
of
the
rout
of
Civilization
of
the
massacre
of
mankind
A
vast
crowd
buffeted
me
towards
the
already
packed
steamer
I
looked
up
enviously
at
those
safely
on
Board
straight
into
the
eyes
of
my
beloved
Carrie
At
sight
of
me
she
began
to
fight
her
Way
along
the
packed
deck
to
the
gangplank
At
that
very
moment
it
was
raised
& I
caught
a
last
glimpse
of
her
Despairing
face
as
the
crowd
swept
me
away
from
her
Journalist
Like
the
sun
through
the
trees
you
came
to
love
me
Like
a
leaf
on
a
breeze
you
blew
away
Through
autumn′s
golden
gown
we
use
to
kick
our
way
You
always
loved
this
time
of
year
Those
fallen
leaves
lie
undisturbed
now
Cause
you're
not
here
Cause
you′re
not
here
Cause
you're
not
here
