Through the fields of St Etienne
amidst the corn I wander
In my hand an ear of
corn the morning dew has kissed
Here beneath the skies
I lay with my lover
While the summer winds
gathered clouds of war
Au revoir my love
though the reasons pass me
Why we can't remain
in the fields of St Etienne
Waving proudly
singing loudly
being young and foolish
He was going never
knowing he would not return
Singing songs of war
filled with God and country
Marching down the road
with the boys that day
Au revoir my love
though the reasons pass me
Why we can't remain
in the fields of St Etienne
Au revoir my love
though the reasons pass me
Why we can't remain
in the fields of St Etienne
