Hush - Lyrics - Abney Park

Abney Park is situated in Stoke Newington, London, England. It is a 13ha park dating from just before 1700, named after Lady Mary Abney and associated with Dr Isaac Watts. In the early 18th century, the park was accessed via the frontages and gardens of two large mansions â her own manor house , and the neighbouring Fleetwood House. Both mansions fronted onto Church Street in what was then a quiet Nonconformist village.

I have marched For years on end My comrades fell As I defend The goals are set My armies fled Fell as they ran Trampled our dead Hush Back through the fields and hush All the ghosts of the dead are awake I am afraid The ghosts of comrades Dead and gone Rise in my path To do me wrong As wars are fought Armies abide Should I be tried For the men who died? Hush Back through the fields and hush All the ghosts of the dead are awake I am afraid Hush Back through the fields and hush All the ghosts of the dead are awake I am afraid I have marched For years on end My comrades fell As I defend The goals are set My armies fled Fell as they ran Trampled our dead Hush Back through the fields and hush All the ghosts of the dead are awake I am afraid Hush Back through the fields and hush All the ghosts of the dead are awake I am afraid I am afraid
