Jennifer Kimball - An Ordinary Soldier lyrics

rate me

It was easier when I let go.<br />

It was easier than you will know.<br />

Your lovely face, your deepest eyes -<br />

You fade from me in this disguise.<br />

<br />

But where is my cavalry?<br />

Who's going to follow me,<br />

Who will fight by my side?<br />

<br />

I'm standing still, I'm standing straight.<br />

An ordinary soldier with my blind faith.<br />

I hear the wind as I retreat.<br />

It sings of when we two shall meet.<br />

<br />

In the lee of the battle<br />

My heart, heavy like rain,<br />

Beats slowly to the single drum<br />

That sounds out your name.<br />

<br />

But where is my cavalry?<br />

Who's going to follow me?<br />

Who will fight by my side and hold me when I fall?<br />

Who will keep me from slipping into the past?<br />

Who will help me remember I loved and lost well?
