belle and sebastian – i fought in a war lyrics
i fought in a war and i left my friends behind me
to go looking for the enemy, and it wasn’t very long
before i would stand with another boy in front of me
and a corpse that just fell into me, with the bullets flying round
and i reminded myself of the words you said when we were getting on
and i bet you’re making sh-lls back home for a steady boy to wear
round his neck, well it won’t hurt to think of you as if you’re waiting for
this letter to arrive because i’ll be here quite a while
i fought in a war and i left my friends behind me
to go looking for the enemy, and it wasn’t very long
before i found out that the sickness there ahead of me
went beyond the bedsit infamy of the decade gone before
and i reminded myself of the words you said when we were getting on
and i bet you’re making sh-lls back home for a steady man to wear
round his neck, well it won’t hurt to think of you as if you’re waiting for
this letter to arrive because i’ll be here quite a while
i fought in a war, and i didn’t know where it would end
it stretched before me infinitely, i couldn’t really think
of the day beyond now, keep your head down pal
there’s trouble plenty in this hour, this day
i can see hope i can see light
and i reminded myself of the looks you gave when we were getting on
and i bet you’re making sh-lls back home for a steady man to wear
round his neck, well it won’t hurt to think of you as if you’re waiting for
this letter to arrive because i’ll be here quite a while
