Bush Kate Oh England My Lionheart Lyrics

Oh England My Lionheart Lyrics

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 Post
that never, ever ends
Our Thumping hearts hold the Ravens in,
And keep
the tower from tumbling
Chorus:
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 the appleblossom,
Give me one wish and
I'd be wassailing
In the orchard my English Rose,
Or with my shepherd
who'll bring me home
Chorus:
