Field Of Love Songtext / Lyric

When I was young I took an oath

To fight for love and faith and hope

But how was I to have known

I would have to face myself, my cover blown



Yeah I was shaken by what I saw

Something in you breaks when you watch your comrades fall

Even now I suppose the battle's not yet over

And I'm just another soldier

On the field of love






Marching blind through the dark

Somehow it fell on me to lead the charge

I was wounded, I bear the scar

And wear it like a badge of courage on my heart



So sound the bugle and beat the drums

The sky has turned blood-red at the setting of the sun

Even now, heaven knows, the battle's not yet over

And I'm just another soldier

On the field of love



Should I go down on this hallowed ground

Surely more of us are willing to try for love

Willing to die



So sound the bugle and beat the drums

The night is coming on at the sinking of the sun



Even now I suppose the battle's never over

As long as there's a soldier

On the field of love
