Pj Harvey Colour Of The Earth Lyrics

Colour Of The Earth lyrics


Louis was my dearest friend
Fighting in the ANZAC trench
Louis ran forward from the line
I never saw him again
Later in the dark
I thought I heard Louis' voice
Calling for his mother, then me
But I couldn't get to him
He's still up on that hill
{ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/p/pj-harvey-lyrics/colour-of-the-earth-lyrics.html }
20 years on that hill
Nothing more than a pile of bones
But I think of him still
If I was asked I'd tell
The colour of the earth that day
It was dull and browny red
The colour of blood, I'd say
