Текст песни Turning (Live) - Claude-Michel Schönberg

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 that new world now the fighting's done?

Who will wake them?
No one ever will
No one every told them that a summers 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
(Turning, turning)
Minutes into hours, and the hours into years
(Minutes into hours)
Nothing changes, nothing ever can
(Nothing changes, nothing ever can)
Round about the roundabout
(Round about the roundabout)
Round and round and back where you began!
