Les Misérables Turning Lyrics

WOMAN ONE
Did you see them going off to fight?

WOMAN TWO
Children of the barricade who didn't last the night

WOMAN THREE
Did you see them lying where they died?
Someone used to cradle them and kiss them when they cried

WOMAN FOUR
Did you see them lying side by side?

WOMAN FIVE
Who will wake them?

WOMAN SIX
No one ever will

WOMAN TWO
No one ever told them that a summer day can kill

WOMAN SEVEN
They were schoolboys, never held a gun
Fighting for a new world that would rise up like the sun

WOMAN THREE
Where's that new world now the fighting's done?

WOMAN FOUR
Nothing changes

WOMAN SEVEN
Nothing ever will

WOMAN EIGHT
Every year another brat, another mouth to fill

WOMAN SEVEN
Same old story, what's the use of tears?

WOMAN FIVE
What's the use of praying if there's nobody who hears?

ALL
Turning, turning, turning, turning, turning through the years
Turning, turning, turning through the years
Minutes into hours and the hours into years
Nothing changes, nothing ever can
Round about the roundabout and back where you began
Round and round and back where you began
