He was a soldier who'd only been married two or three years ago, And he put his hands on her knees that night and he said I gotta' go. She said why would you leave this home and me, I thought I was your baby-girl, And he wiped away the tears from her eyes and said they're sending me to save the world. And you know I love you and I pray to God that he'll join us once again, But now it's time for this simple man to be one of the few good men.
Cause baby I'm a soldier And I hear those trumpets calling again And our kings and queens Are saying this is a fight we must win For truth and justice And for the way we live our life And baby I'm a soldier In fornt of God I swore I would fight
Across the ocean and miles away, there stood another man. Eighteen years, hugging his mama, saying I'll defend this land. Mama held her baby and cried and clutched him, telling him not to leave. She said what will I do without my baby-boy, son I'm begging you please, He said I love you mama but duty calls, I'll write to you everyday. She said I lost your daddy like this and I don't wanna' lose you this way.
Cause mama I'm a soldier And I hear those trumpets calling again And our kings and queens Are saying this is a fight we must win For truth and justice And for the way we live our life And mama I'm a soldier In fornt of God I swore I would fight
Well the battle raged and shots rang out and the two men fell to the ground, And they looked into the eyes of each other and were shocked at what they found.
One man saw the mother of the other in that young man's eyes. And the other man saw the crying and screams of the other man's beloved wife. And the two men stared across that smoky field and whispered to each other. Maybe you weren't the demon they said, Maybe you were really my brother. But I'm glad we're passing cause I don't think that I could forgive myself For fighting you, but maybe God will and we can live together in bliss.
Cause ladies we were soldiers, and we heard those trumpets calling again. And tell the kings and queens that sometimes there are fights no one wins. But we know for sure that there's evil out there we must fight. But please be sure that this is one of those times. Ans please be sure to remember my mama and wife. And please be sure to think of my brother on the other side.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
