André Rieu - The Hurdy-Gurdy Waltz lyrics

Ocean bird, I wish to tell you A story from a long time ago Oh ocean bird, I wish to tell you That sad old song you have to know America, so many heroes They left their homes and crossed the waves America, you sent your young boys Oh ocean bird, how must I tell you That sad old song? They came to save us! America, so many heroes They lost their lives and filled the graves America, we love your heroes America, we are your friends America, we?ll always love you And keep you in our hearts and hands America, so many heroes They left their homes and crossed the waves America, you die of grief now Oh ocean bird, how must I tell you That sad new song? They are in pain now! America, we share your sorrow America, let hope remain
