Phillips, Craig and Dean - For A Dream lyrics
Your rating:
Grey clouds hung like a misty shroud On the battlefield that day And the meadow was strewn with the heroes Who had fallen by the way And a soldier cries as he watches his blood Spill out on the Belgian snow And he wonders if he'll live 'til the morning light Or die here in this bitter cold Why was he here in the first place? He was much too young to die Could there be a cause that was worthy Of such a costly sacrifice Then he thinks about a home in the Texas pines And a lady he'd love to see And something inside says it's worth the price This fight for liberty It was for a dream For a dream For the hope that a child yet unborn Would know about liberty It was for a dream For a dream For a hope that a son that he's never seen Would know about living in the land that was free So he laid his life on the line for a dream Another field of battle Another place and time A soldier hangs between heaven and hell His life now on the line Abandoned in the heat of the battle He cries in silent pain Alone to face His enemies As they mock and they curse His name Why was He here in the first place Wasn't there some other way Was redemption's plan for fallen man Worth the price He would have to pay But in His mind He could see a people Holy, strong and free Bought by the blood of a man who had fought And won their liberty It was for a dream For a dream For the hope that a people who were yet unborn Could know about liberty It was for a dream For a dream For the hope that those that He's never seen Would know about living life abundantly So He laid His life on the line for a dream It was for a dream For a dream For the hope that those that He's never seen Would know about living life abundantly So He laid His life on the line for a dream
