lyrics

Verse 1
In a misty distance, where the horizon meets the sky
The wind is the fluttering heart, of a soldier born to die
Lord I have served my time, so take me to the stars
This is not the dream, I have chased so very far

Verse 2
Oh darling don’t you weep
Over words our kids will never speak
If the world should ever be as one
Look for my spirit in the shadow of the sun

Verse 3
The whistle of silver bullets, the rivers of the tears
The dreams turned to nightmares, the freedom turned to fear
I wearily look up, with my final breath
This is not the world, that I’m dying to protect

Verse 4
Can’t you see the mothers crying
Can’t you see the children dying
Can’t you hear the fathers praying
That they’ll fight no more, can’t you hear them saying

Verse 5
A contract signed in blood
What happened to the love
Was it all just empty words
A story never heard
Bloodshed built in stages
A book with missing pages
Graveyard growing through the ages
Please take me home tonight
