I keep a light in the window
|
Dark band on my heart
|
Some days are better than others
|
Mostly I'm falling apart
|
|
I keep his picture beside me
|
I see the dream in his eyes
|
I watch the light disappearing
|
Into unsettled skies
|
|
You say the world will be a better place
|
After this war is won
|
You say no sacrifice too great
|
But every soldier is a mother's son
|
|
I know he can't take the killing
|
And how it messes with his soul
|
I know the days are unending
|
When you're so far from home
|
|
You say the world will be a better place
|
After this war is won
|
You say no sacrifice too great
|
But every soldier is a mother's son
|
|
You say the world will be a better place
|
After this war is won
|
You say no sacrifice too great
|
But every soldier is a mother's son
|
|
No war that can be won
|
When every soldier is a mother's son
|
No war that can be won
|
When every soldier is a mother's son
|
|
I keep a light in the window
|
I keep a vigil inside
|
I say a prayer for those mothers
|
Across the enemy lines
|
|
You say the world will be a better place
|
After this war is won
|
You say no sacrifice too great
|
But every soldier is a mother's son
|
|
You say the world will be a better place
|
After this war is won
|
You say no sacrifice too great
|
But every soldier is a mother's son
|
|
Every soldier is a mother's son
|
Every soldier is a mother's son
|
