Where Have All the Flowers Gone?


By Pete Seeger

Summer Flowers
Where have all the flowers gone? Long time passing.

Flora: Spring in the Gardens of the Villa Borghese
Where have all the flowers gone? Long time ago.

Love in a Mist
Where have all the flowers gone?

Narcissus
Girls have picked them every one. When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?

When Flowers return
Where have all the young girls gone? Long time passing

Peonies
Where have all the young girls gone? Long time ago.

Summer Offering
Where have all the young girls gone?

The Wedding March
Taken husbands every one. When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?

God Speed
Where have all the young men gone? Long time passing.

The Black Brunswicker
Where have all the young men gone? Long time ago.

Adieu
Where have all the young men gone?

War
Gone for soldiers every one. When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?

War
Where have all the soldiers gone? Long time passing.

The Boer War
Where have all the soldiers gone? Long time ago.

Requiescat
Where have all the soldiers gone?

The Field of the Slain
Gone to graveyards every one. When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?

Eloe
Where have all the graveyards gone? Long time passing.

Gone, But Not Forgotten
Where have all the graveyards gone? Long time ago.

All Souls' Day
Where have all the graveyards gone?

A Field of Poppies

Covered in flowers every one.
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?

5/21/2004 4:52:34 AM Treeseed moonchild and debracey...thanks for having a look at this album...it is a familiar song that I also pray will one day lose its meaning. I was a very young girl myself when I first heard it 'round a campfire...and though the geography changes from time to time, one war after another erupts and the goddess of peace wanders the globe like a refugee in constant sorrow. Be at peace today.
