All the Young Women Songtext
von Rupert Holmes

All the young women, where are they going
Day after day?
Carrying flowers, beautiful flowers
Flowers for someone far, far away

All the young women silently walking
Children beside them, happy and playing
Mothers and children, where are you going?
Where are you going this beautiful day?

All the young women? Where do they come from?
Why does the line grow longer each day?
Where are their husbands? Where are their fathers?
Where are their brothers and lovers today?


All the young women silently walking
Children beside them, happy and playing
Mothers and children, where are you going?
Where are you going this beautiful day?

All the young women, why are they crying?
Why are they crying, this beautiful day?
They cried for their husbands, their fathers and brothers
They cried for their future they buried today

All the young women silently walking
Children beside them, happy and playing
Mothers and children, where are you going?
Where are you going?

Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Where are you going this beautiful day?
