erasure - the soldier's return (live) [manchester, apollo, uk - 1992/08/06] lyrics
[verse 1: andy bell]
slow the years go by
they stole your man off to war
will you see the child
as you sing battle songs?
[pre+chorus: andy bell]
and it pains me
to think of the soldier’s plight
i will pray
for your god to guide you home
[chorus: andy bell, annick clarisse & veronique clarisse]
and she cries for the soldier’s return
despair at feeling alone for so long
by the light of the candle that burns
for his life for the day of the soldier’s return
[verse 2: andy bell, annick clarisse & veronique clarisse]
hear the cannon fire
lost voices echo in the night
see the spoils of war
young men are falling, ooh
[pre+chorus 2: andy bell]
hear the drummer
marching over the hill
love returning
and thе graves of the battle liе still
[chorus: andy bell, annick clarisse & veronique clarisse]
and she cries for the soldier’s return
despair at feeling alone for so long
by the light of the candle that burns
for his life for the day of the soldier’s return
[interlude]
[pre+chorus 2: andy bell]
hear the drummer
marching over the hill
love returning
and the graves of the battle lie still
[chorus: andy bell, annick clarisse & veronique clarisse]
and she cries for the soldier’s return
despair at feeling alone for so long
by the light of the candle that burns
for his life for the day of the soldier’s return
[coda: annick clarisse & veronique clarisse]
young men are falling
young men are falling
young men are falling
young men are falling
