Death is an easy escape in this horrid war But I am a man who will stand by the oath he swore Here, on this island of fear, I will hold my ground 'Til I prevail or the enemy shoots me down
They told me to never surrender And duty must always come first But sometimes I can't help but wonder If my life has somehow been cursed
Year after year, it goes on like an endless night I carry on to pursue what I know is right My enemies fall, one by one, in this foreign land But then, from above, comes a message from high command
They say the war is all over I don't believe what I hear And though I may not grow much older My duty is ever so clear:
On this island of fear, I shall remain And I will not yield to whatever comes my way It may be twenty-nine years before I'm home again But I will keep on fighting all the same
I will never surrender I won't ever give up I am bound by my honour And I will never stop If I ever surrender It will all be for naught And I'll lose all my honour 'Cause of the shame I've broughtTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
