[00:16.75] In the year of '39 assembled here the volunteers [00:21.20] In the days when the lands were few [00:25.86] Here the ship sailed out into the blue and sunny morn [00:31.20] The sweetest sight ever seen [00:35.00] And the night followed day [00:37.66] And the story tellers say [00:40.39] That the score brave souls inside [00:44.07] For many a lonely day sailed across the milky seas [00:48.52] Ne'er looked back, never feared, never cried [00:53.92] Don't you hear my call though you're many years away [00:58.57] Don't you hear me calling you [01:03.06] Write your letters in the sand [01:04.84] For the day I take your hand [01:07.57] In the land that our grandchildren knew [01:41.11] In the year of '39 came a ship in from the blue [01:45.76] The Volunteers came home that day [01:51.18] And they bring good news of a world so newly born [01:55.76] Though their hearts so heavily weigh [01:59.45] For the earth is old and grey, little darlin' we'll away [02:04.93] But my love this cannot be [02:09.45] For so many years have gone though I'm older but a year [02:13.00] Your mother's eyes from your eyes cry to me [02:18.58] Don't you hear my call though you're many years away [02:23.04] Don't you hear me calling you [02:27.69] Write your letters in the sand [02:30.33] For the day I take your hand [02:33.08] In the land that our grandchildren knew [02:36.61] Don't you hear my call though you're many years away [02:41.26] Don't you hear me calling you [02:45.75] All your letters in the sand cannot heal me like your hand [02:50.36] For my life [02:52.12] Still ahead [02:53.05] Pity me [02:56.63]
