The Echoing Green The Sparrows And The Nightingales lyrics

How long have you been free
In this world of hate and greed?
Is it black or is it white?
Let's find another compromise

And our futures standing still
We're dancing in the spotlight
Where is the leader who leads me?
I'm still waiting

Leaving home and God is on your side
Dividing sparrows from the nightingales
Watching all the time
Dividing water from the burning fire inside

Move in circles walk on lines
No human being in sight
Calm the winds and calm the seas
Lets try another kind of peace

Who fights this holy civil war
A million men in uniform

Wo ist der fhrer der mich fhrt?
Ich warte immer noch

Leaving home and God is on your side
Dividing cruelty from tenderness
Watching all the time
Dividing fiction from reality
God is on your side

And God is on your side
Dividing presence from our history
Watching all the time
Dividing deaf men from the listening ones

And God is on your side
Dividing soldiers from the fisherman
Watching all the time
Dividing warships from the ferryboats
God is on your side
