Rod Stewart - Flags And Banners lyrics

(rod stewart, ronnie lane, 1973) [vocals by ronnie lane] Last night i was woken by my cry Had a dream just as plain as you and i Saw the morning sun on a woodland in the spring Still hear the echo crashing through the trees Oh when i saw you down i fell upon my knees You and i we were wearing southern grey I called to you, but i used another name I beat the ground and i cried out in your pain But through a scarlet door i watched you slipping away And your brothers' helpless prayers were all in vain Last night i was woken by my cry
