Out come the flags and banners again
The memorial band plays on
Lloyd George my fathers friend
And light breaks on the streets
Where no sun shines
Where my fathers lived and died
But time moves on in this my town
The sound of the wind is blowing
Rushing over hill and vale
As the new day dawns
And a rose
A rose beyond the wall
And I, I walk away from you
And everyone who knew me well
Oh my valley
For pastures new
There's cruel in this innocent world I've known
Oh I don't want to go
Oh no from this my town
The sound of the wind is blowing
Rushing over hill and vale
As the new day dawns
And a rose
A rose beyond the wall
There comes a time in my life
When I have to take a chance
To find myself find my way
Oh I've got to find a way in life
In this my town you never let me down
But time moves on
In this my town
The sound of the wind is blowing
Rushing over hill and vale
As the new day dawns
And a rose
A rose beyond the wall
The sound of the wind is blowing
Rushing over hill and vale
As the new day dawns
And a rose
A rose beyond the wall
