They crossed over the border the hour before dawn [00:00:53]

Moving in lines through the day [00:00:59]

Most of our planes were destroyed on the ground where they lay [00:01:05]

Waiting for orders we held in the wood word from the front never came [00:01:11]

By evening the sound of the gunfire was miles away [00:01:23]

Ah, softly we move through the shadows, slip away through the trees [00:01:31]

Crossing their lines in the mists in the fields on our hands and our knees [00:01:38]

And all that I ever was able to see [00:01:46]

The fire in the air glowing red silhouetting the smoke on the breeze [00:01:52]

All summer they drove us back through the Ukraine [00:02:07]

Smolensk and Viasma soon fell [00:02:14]

By autumn we stood with our backs to the town of Orel [00:02:20]

Closer and closer to Moscow they came - riding the wind like a bell [00:02:27]

General Guderian stands at the crest of the hill [00:02:38]

Winter brought with her the rains, oceans of mud filled the roads [00:02:45]

Gluing the tracks of their tanks to the ground while the sky filled with snow [00:02:53]

And all that I ever was able to see [00:03:00]

The fire in the air glowing red silhouetting the snow on the breeze [00:03:07]

In the footsteps of Napoleon the shadow figures stagger through the winter [00:03:45]

Falling back before the gates of Moscow,Standing in the wings like an avenger [00:03:52]

And far away behind their lines the partisans are stirring in the forest [00:03:59]

Coming unexpectedly upon their outposts, growing like a promise [00:04:06]

You＇ll never know, you＇ll never hear us [00:04:09]

You＇ll never know, you＇ll never know [00:04:12]

Which way to turn, which way to look, you＇ll never see us [00:04:16]

As we＇re stealing through the blackness of the night, [00:04:21]

And the evening sings in a voice of amber, the dawn is surely coming [00:04:29]

The morning roads leads to Stalingrad, and the sky is softly humming [00:04:35]

Two broken Tigers on fire in the night flicker their souls to the wind [00:04:55]

We wait in the lines for the final approach to begin [00:05:06]

It＇s been almost four years that I＇ve carried a gun [00:05:13]

At home it will almost be spring [00:05:19]

The flames of the Tigers are lighting the road to Berlin [00:05:25]

Ah, quickly we move through the ruins that bow to the ground [00:05:34]

The old men and children they send out to face us, they can＇t slow us down [00:05:40]

And all that I ever was able to see [00:05:48]

The eyes of the city are opening now it＇s the end of the dream [00:05:55]

I＇m coming home, I＇m coming home, [00:06:33]

Now you can taste it in the wind, the war is over [00:06:35]

And I listen to the clicking of the train wheels as we roll across the border [00:06:40]

And now they ask me of the time [00:06:48]

When I was caught behind their lines and taken prisoner [00:06:50]

＂They only held me for a day, a lucky break＂, I say; [00:06:55]

They turn and listen closer [00:06:58]

I＇ll never know, I＇ll never know [00:07:02]

Why I was taken from the line and all the others [00:07:04]

To board a special train and journey deep into the heart of holy Russia [00:07:10]

It＇s cold and damp in the transit camp, and the air is still and sullen [00:07:18]

And the pale sun of October whispers the snow will soon be coming [00:07:25]

I wonder when I＇ll be home again and the morning answers ＂Never＂ [00:07:33]

The evening sighs and the steely Russian skies go on forever[00:07:40]
