Not All the Flowers Grow

Lyrics

If the school bell had rung Would it have rung a death knell? Now the dark day has gone And there isn't any bell In the flower of their youth How were they to know? And now there's so few left And not all the flowers grow Just think how you would feel Had one been a child of yours And you look out every day And still see the coal seam sores To remind you of that day Just you look out in the rain And although some children play It will never be the same
