Brightened eyes, my secrets lie not far away His medals and his badges are all dull by day Many have I an answered plea, my general now I'll often see He comes at dawn, out on the lawn, in quiet steps With darkened eyes and wounds that bled, have pillow for his weary head He lays his body down to rest, among the dogs and gathered nest
Because he's safe in arms now, what luck have I that I should see Safe in arms now, my bloody boy returned to me From Jericho back home to me
He sleeps so deep, so still at peace, and quiet thus No frightful dreams, of battle's roar, that shake his trust I hope that he, is dreaming on, of better days The morning fog, and waking sun, have healing ways I'll let him sleep, and soundly lay A monument to him I pray
Because he's safe in arms now, what luck have I that I should see Safe in arms now, my bloody boy returned to me From Jericho back home to me
For bruises fade, no traces left, as quick as frost And never will, I have to know, a lover lost My peace is made, my doubts rolled up, my bed complete His waking gaze, and heart and soul, light on my sheets Because he's safe in arms now, what luck have I that I should see
Safe in arms now, my bloody boy returned to me From Jericho back home to me.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
