WHAT CAN I DO? TO SAY THANK YOU, TO A TIME SO LONG AGO.
WHAT CAN I DO? HOW CAN I KNOW, IT SEEMS SO FAR FROM ME.
I KNOW THAT YOU DIED, SO MANY HAD DIED
LONG YEARS AGO, YOU FELT THE DAWN YOU SAW THE SUNSET GLOW.
I KNOW THAT I'M JUST A CHILD, HOW'S A CHILD TO KNOW?
I HAVE A PLACE TO SLEEP, MY FAMILY HAS FOOD TO EAT,
I CAN FEEL SAFE WHEN I'M WALKING DOWN THE STREET
HOW CAN I KNOW, WHAT IT MEANS?
IN FLANDERS FIELDS.
IN FLANDERS FIELDS, IN FLANDERS FIELDS
WHERE YOU DIED LONG YEARS AGO
IN FLANDERS FIELDS, IN FLANDERS FIELDS
WHERE THE POPPIES GROW AND MARK THE ROWS
I TRY TO UNDERSTAND, WHAT IT IS THAT WE HAVE GAINED
WE CAN BE WHO WE ARE, WE CAN REACH FOR THE STARS
WE CAN BE ANYTHING
WE CAN FOLLOW ANY GOD, HAVE A CREED OR NO CREED AT ALL
WE CAN GO ANYWHERE WE WANT, HAVE ANY FRIENDS WE WANT
WE CAN DECIDE FOR OURSELVES THE TRUTH WE WANT
THESE ARE HERE FOR ME BECAUSE OF YOU
WHAT CAN I DO? TO SAY THANK YOU
I'LL REMEMBER YOU.

Hi there folks,
ReplyDeleteGreat that you are using this song. The song was written by my partner Diana Ward of Vernon BC. She is happy that you are using it. It does however have a copyright. You can purchase the music at Long and McQuade and you can reach her via email at Dianaward101@gmail.com. I think it would be a great idea if you contacted her and I bet she would let you use the original recording of the song on your blog.
Cheers,
Mike Panian
