Jamie Saxe - Foreign Fields (feat. Cath Russell) Lyrics

Oh Foreign Fields
Your poppies grow where my love fell
And when I learned he won't return
I saw his eyes
As they looked into your skies
And bid our dreams farewell, and then
He waved my heart good bye
Far from my embrace, to never see his
Face
Consoled by what he gave
So it won't happen again
And his sacrifice was grace
But tell me of this place... oh foreign
Fields
I won't see him again
Victory has come
And they say that we have won
But so many and so young
Will never see another day
Or the land from which they came
Never feel my kiss again
Oh foreign fields, for who now do I pray
Oh foreign Fields you've taken him away
