Текст песни Les Miserables: Turning - TMC Broadway Stars

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
Turning, turning through the years
(Turning, turning through the years)
Hours into years, hours into years
(Hours into years, hours into years)
Nothing changes, nothing ever changes
(Things have changed and nothing ever changes)
Nothing ever can, back where you began
(Nothing ever can, back where you began)

'Round and 'round and back where you began
