Boy Soldier

Song Boy Soldier
Artist Johnny Clegg
Album One Life

Lyrics

作词 : Clegg
I am a boy soldier
Look into my eyes
I'm tired and older
Than the dead man by my side
I can take your soul
In a flash and a smile
And my home, and my name, and my life
Lie so very far behind me
Every second in no man's land
I hold my life in these small hands
Every day in a world gone mad
Hard to face who I am
Once we were children
Once we played in the morning light
Once we were chidren
One morning they came
The soldiers took us away
I am a boy soldier
See my eyes' empty stare
Each day explodes with pain
And it's more than I can bare
The ghosts of the slain
Are the shadows in my eyes
And I dream tomorrow will come
And carry me away
Every second in No Man's Land
I hold my life in these small hands
Every day in a world gone mad
Hard to face who I am
Once we were children
Once we played in the morning light
Once we were dreamers
One morning they came
The soldiers took us away

I' m tired and older
Than the dead man by my side
I can take your soul
In a flash and a smile
And my home, and my name, and my life
Lie so very far behind me
Every second in no man' s land
I hold my life in these small hands
Every day in a world gone mad

Once we played in the morning light
Once we were chidren
One morning they came
The soldiers took us away
