The Barclay James Harvest - Summer Soldier слова песни
I feel sorry for the soldier who is shot and stoned in angerI feel sorry for his wife and child at homeI feel sorry for the bomber who all life and limb dishonoursFor the people that he`s maimed and left aloneThe Lord God said love thy neighbourThough in human life he trades, he`s still a man I feel sorry for the children who with open mind are willingTo fight for ideals aged and past their timeI feel sorry for the children who will join the vicious circleOf instinct fear bred from their parents` mindsThe Lord God said love thy neighbourBreak the circle, free the hater, call him a friend Wake up, wake up, there`s a man by your sideWith a knife and a gun in each handWake up, wake up, you`re one and the sameIt`s time to stop and decideIs it love or hate?Is it peace or war?It`s for sure there`s no inbetweenPoliticians point viewsBut they`re pointing for youThe solution has to be seen I thought I saw a summer soldier, helmet on his browHis silver rifle clutched beneath his armour-plated shroudI fire in hate, he cried aloudTo protect myself from defeatMy shield`s my cause, my cause is warAnd from war I`ll make no retreat I dreamt I saw an angel bright, a halo on his browHis golden sword lay in its sheath beneath his silver shroudI drwa thee not, he cried aloudThough your deeds like spears strike my soulMy shield`s my love, my cause is peaceFaith be sure I shall not retreat
