Lyrics Van Morrison

Van Morrison

Wild Children

We were the War Children

Born 1945

When all the soldiers came marching home

Love looks in their eye

Tennessee Tennessee Williams

Let your inspiration flow

Let it be around when we hear the sound

When the spring time rivers flow when the rivers flow

Rod Steiger and Marlon Brando

Standing with their heads bowed on the side

Crying like a baby thinking about the time

James Dean took that fatal ride, took that ride

Tennessee Tennessee Tennessee Tennessee Williams

Let your inspiration go

Will you be around to hear the sound

When the spring time rivers flow, rivers flow

And Steiger and Marlon Brando

Standing with their heads bowed on the side

Crying like a baby thinking about the time

James Dean took that fatal ride, took that ride

And we were the Wild Children

Back in 1945

When all the soldiers came marching home

Love looks in their eyes, in their eyes
