Lonely the wind calls Over the fields Of the blue and the grey And slowly the night falls It hides and conceals Oh, the blue and the grey
Your thoughts of pride and glory These things won't bring you home It's every young man's story Your castle walls are strong No fear, no desperate worry Forget where you belong With every step you hurry You have to carry on We never end up learning You'll never be returning
You're running like a blind man Nobody knows if you're blue or you're grey So tell me how it started What can you say, whether you're blue You're blue or you're grey
When, when it comes to pass And you, you breathe your last When, when it comes to pass
