|
I'd like to re-write |
|
History books for all time |
|
The future, the past |
|
Search for the rhyme |
|
The search goes on |
|
For truth in everyone |
|
Numbers on the wall |
|
Counting sad young faces, count them all |
|
The thrill of the fight |
|
Killing's such a noble deed |
|
And John said |
|
Love is all we need |
|
Should we forget |
|
Or pause a moment to regret |
|
Where have we been |
|
I see things |
|
I wish I'd never seen |
|
CHORUS: Battle cry |
|
Brave men never fear |
|
Battle cry |
|
Never shed a tear |
|
Battle cry |
|
All good soldiers hear the |
|
Battle cry |
|
BRIDGE: So many, many miles from home |
|
Oh Lord have mercy on my soul |
|
I think the loneliest man in the - - world is a soldier |
|
Yes I know, try to believe |
|
Political renaissance we need |
|
It's the will of |
|
God That we must heed |
|
The image fades |
|
To blacks and blues and subtle grey |
|
It's modern song |
|
The cry goes on and on |
