The Partisan Lyrics

Matthew Barber & Jill Barber The Partisan

[Verse 1]
When they poured across the border
I was cautioned to surrender
This I could not do
I took my gun and vanished
I have changed my name so often
I have lost my wife and children
But I have many friends
Some of them are with me

[Verse 2]
An old woman gave us shelter
Kept us hidden in the garrick
Then the soldiers came
She died without a whisper
There were three of us this morning
I'm the only one this evening
But I must go on
The frontiers are my prison

[Chorus]
Oh the wind, the wind is blowing
Through the graves the wind is blowing
Freedom soon will come
And will come from the shadows

[Foreign language]

[Chorus]
Oh the wind, the wind is blowing
Through the graves the wind is blowing
Freedom soon will come
And will come from the shadows
