Electrelane

The first few lines are?





I heard it from the valleys

I heard it ringing in the mountains

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah





I heard it from the valleys

I heard him singing in the mountains

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah





The rest of the lyrics are taken from the poem A Letter Home by Siegfried Sassoon, written in May 1916.

This poem can be found in many editions of his work (we are not allowed to re-print it here).
