Lyrics
(Verse 1)
In the morning mist, where the rivers gently flow,
I see the shades of England's past, in the fields below.
Where the castles once stood, and the gardens bloomed bright,
Now the memories linger in the fading light.
(Chorus)
Oh, England, dear England, where have you gone?
In the songs of the sparrows, I search on and on.
Through the green rolling hills, to the cobblestone streets,
Your spirit still whispers in the places we meet.
(Verse 2)
There's a tale in the wind, of a time long ago,
When the knights and the fair ladies danced to and fro.
But the echoes have faded, the laughter's grown still,
In the heart of the old town, where the dreams used to fill.
(Chorus)
Oh, England, dear England, where have you gone?
In the songs of the sparrows, I search on and on.
Through the green rolling hills, to the cobblestone streets,
Your spirit still whispers in the places we meet.
(Bridge)
The old church bells chime, with a melancholic tone,
For the days that have vanished, and the seeds that were sown.
But the hope in our hearts, like the dawn's gentle ray,
Keeps the memory of England, never fading away.
(Verse 3)
Now the wanderer roams, with a tear in his eye,
For the land that he loved, now a dream in the sky.
But as long as the sun shines, and the rivers run free,
England's spirit will live on, in you and in me.
(Chorus)
Oh, England, dear England, where have you gone?
In the songs of the sparrows, I search on and on.
Through the green rolling hills, to the cobblestone streets,
Your spirit still whispers in the places we meet.
(Outro)
So I'll sing to the winds, with a heart full of song,
For the England I cherish, where I truly belong.
In the echoes of the past, there's a promise I see,
That the heart of old England, will always be free.
(Chorus)
Oh, England, dear England, where have you gone?
In the songs of the sparrows, I search on and on.
Through the green rolling hills, to the cobblestone streets,
Your spirit still whispers in the places we meet.
(Outro)
So I'll sing to the winds, with a heart full of song,
For the England I cherish, where I truly belong.
