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
