Turning (Live) - 10th Anniversary Concert Cast of Les Misérables

Written by：Alain Boublil/Herbert Kretzmer/Claude-Michel Schönberg

Did you see them

Going off to fight

Children of the barricade

Who didn't last the night

Did you see them

Lying where they died

Someone used to cradle them

And kiss them when they cried

Did you see them

Lying side by side

Who will wake them

No one ever will

No one ever told them

That a summer day can kill

They were schoolboys

Never held a gun

Fighting for a new world

That would rise up like the sun

Where's that new world

Now the fighting's done

Nothing changes nothing ever will

Every year another brat another mouth to fill

Same old story what's the use of tears

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

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 and round the roundabout and back where you began

Round and round and back where you began
