Story behind the song
What would someone born at the turn of century make of today’s world? I’ve borrowed some of last verse from ‘Reply to In Flanders Fields’ by John Mitchell.
Lyrics
Fields of red, bend in the breeze One moment you’re here, and then you’re gone A generation, wasted away Here one moment, then gone another day Chorus What would you think, if you were here today Victorian splender, replaced with urban decay What was it all for, who really knows As we all watch, the poppy fields grow Out of sadness they seemed to appear It’s how we remember, year after year Chorus And so the poppies still gently blow, Between the crosses, row on row For freedom's cause, of you who lie In the sky still the larks fly high Chorus
