(THE FUTILITY OF WAR)
|
|
Oh, I was born your only son
|
And I will think of you
|
Before this day is done
|
|
The fires of hell surround me now
|
So I must fight for freedom
|
Against their raging guns
|
|
In all my life I never said
|
How much I loved you
|
In all this time
|
I never really said I cared
|
|
This war is wrong and so
|
I write these words
|
Before I give my life to the Somme
|
|
In all my life I never said
|
How much I loved you
|
In all this time
|
I never really knew you
|
|
The fires of hell surround me, oh
|
The guns of hell will
|
Take my breath away
|
From my life this day
|
The fires of hell surround me, oh
|
The words I say
|
Must never disappear
|
Keep them locked inside your heart
|
|
I can hear the piper's song
|
And it will play for me
|
Before this day is done
|
|
So I will hold my head up high
|
If I must give my life
|
To stop their raging guns
|
|
Oh, I was born your only son
|
And I thank god for that and
|
That that will be done
|
