I’d like to be a soldier of war over the sea to you my dear
You always stared at me blankly we said we’d always care my dear
I’m your soldier you’re my soldier
I’m your soldier you’re my soldier
I’d like to see the pain in your eyes like me

I’d like to be a soldier of war over the sea near you my dear
You always stared at me blankly we said we’d always care my dear

I’d like to be a soldier of war over the sea near you my dear
You always stared at me blankly we said we’d always care my dear

Now the stars don’t shine and the birds don’t sing anymore
It’s not the same
Now the stars don’t shine and the birds don’t sing anymore
It’s not the same

These are small victories
