Bound For Glory - Coming Home lyrics

rate me

That final day has come to dawn

I'm off to no-mans land

Into the barbed wire, into the smoke

Where ones' dreams turn to sand

I look to the day when I'm in your arms

After the pain and misery of war

When I look in your eyes and see your smile

I know what I've been fighting for

Chorus:

I'm off to the front, you must not cry

I'd die a thousand deaths before I'd live a lie

Your love and trust in me is all I'd ever known

Forget me not, because one day I'm coming home

Shattered dreams lay all around me

Yet my faith is strong

To see the future of you and me

Keeps me carrying on

You're in my thoughts day and night

When I'm asleep you're in my dreams

You're my sanity in this world of madness

That's filled with cries and screams

(Repeat Chorus)

The train keeps on rolling

To where many before me have fell

For the blood and the glory and the sacrifice

Of a generation fighting in hell

May I be brave as those before me

Staring the shadow of death in the eye

With passion and valor I'll stare in his face

For I'm not afraid to die

(Repeat Chorus)
