《Soldier’s Song》歌词

时长： 04:02

The smoke was slowly rising as the light began to fade [00:00:05]

There were fires on the skyline from some distant border raid [00:00:10]

I was riding out at seventeen to join my first brigade [00:00:15]

Many years ago [00:00:21]

And I chanced upon a farmhouse where the woman took me in [00:00:26]

She gave me food and wine she gave me shelter from the wind [00:00:32]

She delayed me from my regiment and service of my king [00:00:37]

Many years ago [00:00:43]

She said soldier before I lose you to the fight [00:00:48]

Oh my soldier I'll make a man of you tonight [00:00:54]

She took me over in the fading fireglow [00:00:59]

On that wild and misty night she was my woman [00:01:05]

When I rose next morning I was gone before she stood [00:01:16]

Tore myself away from there and left without a word [00:01:22]

The sound of distant infantry was the only sound I heard [00:01:27]

On that morning [00:01:32]

And in that day I aged ten years and died a thousand deaths [00:01:38]

I learned the feel of frozen steel and fear within my breast [00:01:44]

But the lesson I'll remember till they lay me to my rest [00:01:49]

Keeps returning [00:01:54]

She said soldier before I lose you to the fight [00:02:00]

Oh my soldier I'll make a man of you tonight [00:02:05]

She took me over in the fading fireglow [00:02:10]

On that wild and misty night she was my woman [00:02:16]

And when the dice of war were thrown and victory was won [00:02:47]

My drunken young compatriots went out to have their fun [00:02:52]

And there was no single house [00:02:57]

They didn't burn or overrun on that evening [00:02:59]

And I rode out to that place again as hard as I could ride [00:03:08]

But I found her by the cradle on that lonely mountainside [00:03:14]

In the hands of those brave friends of mine [00:03:19]

She suffered and she died [00:03:22]

Many years ago [00:03:24]

Soldier before I lose you to the fight [00:03:31]

She said soldier I'll make a man of you tonight [00:03:35]

She took me over in the fading fireglow [00:03:41]

On that wild and misty night she was my woman [00:03:46]
