lyrics

Little Soldier

Well I left behind
the sinking land
as the levee would not hold
I had seen the bombs
falling through the sky
like the blackest shades of snow

As the tidal burst
washed the city clean
I was headed for the hills
I walked through the jungle
to his hideaway
where I hoped he'd be there still

Take me in little soldier
tell me what we're fighting for
take me in little soldier
tell me where we're gonna go
'cause I've been run up on this mountain
I've been stomped into this floor
I tell you I don't want to
fight this war no more

I go to him for comfort
'cause he always knows
the best thing we could do
when the love is thin
or our time is low
like our world was torn in two
we walked through the swamp
looking through the fog
as the explosions echoed through
I didn't know his plan
I marched to his command
as we moved the noises grew

Take me in little soldier
tell me what we're fighting for
take me in little soldier
tell me where we're gonna go
'cause I've been run up on this mountain
I've been stomped into this floor
I tell you I don't want to
fight this war no more

I awoke in silence
I awoke in peace
as the light shined from above
there he stood before me
looking down on me
with a smile full of love
he told me what was done
while we were on the run
we were rescued from the sky
and as the colours swirled
I heard no other word
I just lay down
and shut my eyes

Take me in little soldier
tell me what we're fighting for
take me in little soldier
tell me where we're gonna go
'cause I've been run up on this mountain
I've been stomped into this floor
I tell you I don't want to
fight this war no more
I know that I don't have to
fight this war no more
