If I were free to speak my mind,
I'd tell a tale to all mankind,
Of how the flow'rs do bloom and fade,
Of how we fought and how we pain.
This weary world has had its spell
Of words of war on every hill.
This time has come for peaceful days
And peaceful men of peaceful ways.
If I were free to speak my mind,
I'd tell a tale to all mankind,
Of how the flow'rs do bloom and fade,
Of how we fought and how we pain.
When all mankind has ceased to fight
I'd raise my hand in thanks each night,
For this rich earth and all it means,
For golden days and peaceful dreams.
If I were free to speak my mind,
I'd tell a tale to all mankind,
Of how the flow'rs do bloom and fade,
Of how we fought and how we pain.
I'd tell a tale to all mankind,
Of how the flow'rs do bloom and fade,
Of how we fought and how we pain.
This weary world has had its spell
Of words of war on every hill.
This time has come for peaceful days
And peaceful men of peaceful ways.
If I were free to speak my mind,
I'd tell a tale to all mankind,
Of how the flow'rs do bloom and fade,
Of how we fought and how we pain.
When all mankind has ceased to fight
I'd raise my hand in thanks each night,
For this rich earth and all it means,
For golden days and peaceful dreams.
If I were free to speak my mind,
I'd tell a tale to all mankind,
Of how the flow'rs do bloom and fade,
Of how we fought and how we pain.
