oh england my lionheart

Singer:bush, kate

oh! england

my lionheart

i'm in your garden

fading fast in your arms. the soldiers soften

the war is over. the air raid shelters are blooming clover. flapping umbrellas fill the lanes--

my london bridge in rain again. oh! england

my lionheart!

peter pan steals the kids in kensington park. you read me shakespeare on the rolling thames--

that old river poet that never

ever ends. our thumping hearts hold the ravens in

and keep the tower from tumbling. oh! england

my lionheart

oh! england

my lionheart

oh! england

my lionheart

i don't want to go. oh! england

my lionheart!

dropped from my black spitfire to my funeral barge. give me one kiss in apple-blossom. give me one wish

and i'd be wassailing

in the orchard

my english rose

or with my shepherd

who'll bring me home. oh! england

my lionheart

oh! england

my lionheart

oh! england

my lionheart

i don't want to go. oh! england

my lionheart

oh! england

my lionheart

oh! england

my lionheart

i don't want to go.
