She used to run among the forest branches Costumed in the feather and the leaves she'd find. Practicing her pirouettes and prances Perfectly Pavlova in her prime. Lyrics submitted by SongMeanings.

Buffy Sainte-Marie – Moratorium Lyrics. Captain Collier came home, he's been fighting the war And I guess he thought he'd be hailed as a hero and more And he walked down the streets of the old home town And he saw how it is around here now. Now Captain Collier had to call far too many girls for a date that night All the girls had gone out with their long haired boys. It said "Fuck the war and bring our brothers home" And corp'ral McCann he looks into her eyes And I believe that he's begun to understand. Oh soldier, It's for you We formed our little bands The politicians and the magazines They just don't understand. Yes, soldier it's for you We're riskin' all we have We're nailed and jailed the same as you Our lives are up for grabs Yes soldier it's for you We want to bring you home We wanna hold you in our arms Come back and keep us warm.

Illuminations, released in 1969, is the sixth album by Buffy Sainte-Marie. Though most of the tracks did away with the backing she had used on her previous two albums, Illuminations had a completely different sound from anything she had previously done. From a basis of vocals and acoustic guitar, Sainte-Marie and producer Maynard Solomon used electronic synthesisers to create a sound that was much more experimental music than folk.
