One day

The fields will be green

And one day

The skies will be blue

And one day

The rivers will be bright silver ribbons

Running round the hills

Quiet hills



You'll see

One day

The rains will be soft

And one day

The winds will be sweet

Oh sweeter than springtime

And the whisper of lilac, apple, pine and pear

Will fill the air



And one day

A child full of wonder

Won't fear the dark sound of thunder

No dreams of danger

When a soldier is a stranger

>from a distant time

Distant world



On that morning

You stand

With tomorrow

Safe in your hand

That will be the day
