Esther Ofarim - Song Of The French Partisan lyrics

rate me

When they poured across the border I was cautioned to surrender, this I could not do; I took my gun and vanished. An old woman gave us shelter, kept us hidden in the garret, then the soldiers came; she died without a whisper. Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing, through the graves the wind is blowing, freedom soon will come; then we'll come from the shadows. There were three of us this morning I'm the only one this evening still I must go on; the frontiers are my prison. I have changed my name so often, I've lost my wife and children but I have many friends, and some of them are with me. Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing, through the graves the wind is blowing, freedom soon will come; then we'll come from the shadows. Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing, through the graves the wind is blowing, freedom soon will come; then we'll come from the shadows
