Joan Baez - China songtekst

Je score:

Came the descendants of a hundred flowers
 And their fight it did begin with the aging Mandarin
 And they fought with an extraordinary power
 Everyone was smiling, their hearts were one
 In Tiananmen Square

 But it seems that the Spring this year in Beijing
 Came just before the Fall
 There was no summer at all
 In Tiananmen Square
 China... China

 There's peace in the emerald fields, there's mist upon the lakes
 But something is afoot in the People's Hall
 The spirit of Chu Ping is alive in young Chai Ling
 And the Emperor has his back against the wall
 Black sun rising over Tiananmen Square
 Over Tiananmen Square

 But it seems that the Spring this year in Beijing
 Came just before the Fall
 There was no summer at all
 In Tiananmen Square
 China... China

 In the month of June, in the darkness of the moon
 Went the descendants of a hundred flowers
 And time may never tell how many of them fell
 Like the petals of a rose in some satanic shower
 Everyone was weeping in all of China
 And Tiananmen Square

 But it seems that the Spring this year in Beijing
 Came just before the Fall
 There was no summer at all
 In Tiananmen Square
 China... China

 And even the moon on the fourth day of June
 Hid her face and did not see
 Black sun rising over Tiananmen Square

 And Wang Wei Lin, you remember him
 All alone he stood before the tanks
 A shadow of forgotten ancestors in Tiananmen Square

 And my blue-eyed son, you had no one
 You could call a hero of your age
 You have the rainbow warriors of Tiananmen Square, singing
 China Shall Be Free
 China Shall Be Free
 China Shall Be Free
