She Swings, She Sways - War Song lyrics

A world away at the age of 19, I once stood a strapping young lad We conquered the world in a day and a half and left 10000 wounded and dead Ache for me sister, bleed for me brother. For soon my bloodlust will be gone. And if I come home to you broken or worse, bury me down on the lawn. Well who wants to fight in a cold and dirty war for reasons we never will know I'd kiss you goodbye but I'm afraid you'll forget the taste of my lips when I go Don't cry for me mama like you cried for my papa, he's already been 12 years gone If I have come home to you broken or worse, don't forget that I'm buried on the lawn Time got it wrong when a decade came along and disappeared, when did the clock steal away My bloody war is far from resolution, but maybe I wanted it that way. Forget me my lover, die for me brother, just maybe I'm right where I belong I'm forgotten and buried on the lawn
