Soldier - mkt bra text

Uffe sang denne på Britannia forrige helg. Han har sunget den før - men da singback... endelig sang han den med band. Låta finnes på en gammel Phil Driscoll plate. Har vært vanskelig å finne den - men til slutt....:

Soldier

Soldier
Standing on the battle line
Finding comfort
In the water and the wine
And your armour
Still so shiny and so new
But your dirty, worn, and tired
From the battles you've been through.

Soldier
Keep your eyes straight ahead
Help the wounded
Though it hurts you leave the dead
Keep your weapons and your spirit
At the ready all the time
Be of courage and conviction
Hit the mark, toe the line

(chorus)
And tonight when all the lights go out
You lie down to rest
Know that i am proud of you
I know you've done your best
Let me give you peace
Let me hold you for a while
Yes you are a mighty warrior
But don't forget don't forget
Your still my child.

Soldier
Standing on the battle line
finding comfort
In my water and new wine
know I am with you when the world keeps chargin' in
And I'll be with you
I'll see you through to the very end

Soldier
Keep my flag flying high
Don't let it fall in battle
Or be stolen in the night
And above all else dear soldier
Don't you lose your battle cry
Cause my army's fighting with you
And I'm standing by your side
