Trains pull out young soldiers lean out
For a glance, for a glance, one more glance
Mama’s tears will fall
Go with God
World’s lost in the smoke but boys’ll still joke
Cold metal of your gun, cold metal, cold metal
Won’t shine
Sun won’t shine
So take a hold of the hand of your brother
Maybe this time time will run astray
Far away beats the heart of your lover
And she waits alone for word of the day
Days go slow one by one
Dead fall fast one by one, one by one by one
More trains pull out young soldiers lean out
For a glance, for a glance, one more glance
Mama’s tears will fall
War will fall
So take a hold of the hand of your brother
Maybe this time time will run astray
Far away beats the heart of your lover
And she waits alone for word of the day
So take a hold of the hand of your brother
Maybe this time time will run astray
Far away beats the heart of your lover
As she waits in tears and dreams of yesterday
