Rest now soldier


Rest now soldier your quest is put to rest Bloody wounds ache in sorrow it'll be better for you tomorrow You'll leave the battle field once in for all He's waiting to take you home soldier hear his call Shut your pain reddened eyes and sleep child Your fight is done the condition is now mild Your brothers and sisters await their fellow fighter Let your wings glide you higher Your lips drenched with cold blood If I could cry me a river it would be a flood A long night awaits with mother moon With those eyes anyone could swoon Your dog tag leads you home where you belong He's in heaven hear his song
