Jack Savoretti - Soldier's Eyes lyrics

rate me

Lately I've been wondering what's been going on

I've been here before but I don't remember when

And every time we get to where we're entering

I feel my beliefs and hopes surrendering

But I know I'll be coming home soon

And yes

I know that I'll be coming home soon

'Cause like the enemies that we are battling

I am nothing but a human alien

Left with nothing else but to keep wandering

Down this path whilst stopping my hands trembling

Because I know that I'll be coming home soon

And yes

I know that I'll be coming home soon with a soldier's eyes

With a soldier's eyes

With a soldier's eyes

With a soldier's eyes

I've seen inside the devil's dreams where young men die

And graveyards open up their arms for mothers left to cry

I have seen the bleeding and I hate what we've done

But just like every other fool I'll keep marching on

Because I know that I'll be coming home soon

And yes

I know, that I'll be coming home soon with a soldier's eyes

With a soldier's eyes

With a soldier's eyes

With a soldier's eyes
