Words and music by Brian May
2
In the year of '39
3
Assembled here the volunteers
4
In the days when lands were few.
5
Here the ship sailed out into the blue and sunny mornin',
6
The sweetest sight ever seen.
7
And the night followed day,
8
And the storytellers say
9
That the score brave souls inside
10
For many a lonely day
11
Sailed across the milky seas
12
Ne'er looked back, never feared, never cried.
13
Don't you hear my call
14
Though you're many years away?
15
Don't you hear me calling you?
16
Write your letters in the sand
17
For the day I take your hand
18
In the land that our grandchildren knew.
19
In the year of '39
20
Came a ship in from the blue,
21
The volunteers came home that day.
22
And they bring good news
23
Of a world so newly born,
24
Though their hearts so heavily weigh.
25
For the earth is old and grey
26
To a new home we'll away,
27
But my love this cannot be,
28
For so many years have gone
29
Though I'm older but a year
30
Your mother's eyes from your eyes cry to me.
31
Don't you hear my call
32
Though you're many years away?
33
Don't you hear me calling you?
34
Write your letters in the sand
35
For the day I'll take your hand
36
In the land that our grandchildren knew.
37
Don't you hear my call
38
Though you're many years away?
39
Don't you hear me calling you?
40
All your letters in the sand
41
Cannot heal me like your hand,
42
For my life
43
Still ahead.
44
Pity me.
