The soldier's return Letra

As you sing battle songs

And it pains me
To think of the soldier's plight
I will pray for your heart
To guide you home

And she cries for the soldier's return
Despair of feeling alone for so long
By the light of the candle that burns for his life
For the day of the soldier's return

Hear the cannon fire
Lost voices echo in the night
See the spoils of war
Young men are falling, ooh

Hear the drummer marching over the hill
Love returning and the graves of the battle lie still

And she cries for the soldier's return
Despair of feeling alone for so long
By the light of the candle that burns for his life
For the day of the soldier's return

Hear the drummer marching over the hill
Love returning and the graves of the battle lie still

Young men are falling, young men are falling...
