paroles de chanson Golden Hero - Mary Hopkin

Brave young warrior slain in battle
Life is ended in a flash of steel
17, and soon forgotten
Frail, young body, lies cold and still

Brave young warrior slain in battle
Life is ended in a flash of steel
17, and soon forgotten
Frail, young body, lies cold and still

He's too young to be fighting
Too young, he's only 17
Too young to be the golden hero
Too young to be dying

Wake up, son, it's just a nightmare
That kind of thing could never happen here
Modern man, so civilized
There's not a chance that it could happen here

You're too young to be fighting
Too young, you're only seventeen
Too young to be the golden hero
Too young to be dying

Take a long hard look around you
We've come a long way in a thousand years
Governments and politicians
Offer platitudes to calm your fears

You're too young to be fighting
Too young, you're only 17
Too young to be the golden hero
Too young to be dying
