Today Began A Thousand Years Ago - Beau

I remember when the long ships

Sailed across the eastern sound

Toward the western skyline

Where the greenest hills are found

And I remember when they stormed

The cliffs along our jagged coasts

And the sentries in the villages

Who huddled at their posts

And didn't seem to

Know which way to go

Because today began

A thousand years ago

Today began a thousand years ago

And I remember when King Richard

Rode out on the great crusade

I saw his armour shining

And I watched his glory fade

And I saluted good King John

Whose greatest ever deed

Was signing Magna Carta

For us all at Runnymede

A light of freedom shining from below

Today began a thousand years ago

Today began a thousand years ago

I remember how the lights went down

When someone lit the fuse;

The salad days; the slow malaise

Of the 20th Century blues

The nightingales still sang

And there was music in the air

The clouds were gathering once again

High over Berkeley Square

And once again our

Young men had to go

Today began a thousand years ago

Today began a thousand years ago

Now the stones will tell their stories

When the moss is peeled away

The sun will shine as brightly

When tomorrow is today

And history will delight them

With its mix of truth and lies

The world will never let

The future in on its disguise

But the flowers on the heath

Will always grow

Because today began

A thousand years ago

Because today began a thousand years ago
