08 Motorways

The sunlight fades across the meadow
The silver birches spread their shadow
The river stops, becomes too shallow
The field is left, the farm lies fallow
The sea of green will soon turn brown
The royal oaks will be pulled down
The winter's here with this new dawn
In future's past the trees they'll mourn

And you would never ask...
And I could never say
Nature's soul is in me
They would never see...
The path that we weave
‘Til this grand new day
We were lead astray
We built the motorway

The fires burn, pollute the air
The tarmac's dry, the corn laid bare
The cars will come & break the peace
They move like soldier ants...
Will they never cease?

We were lead astray
We built the motorway
