Marching On

They walked along the lonely roads With rusty guns and dirty clothes The last support, a bugle calls Once proud, but soon they'll have to fall Heroic words and standards high A last embrace, the tears they cried It moves their minds but not for long 'Cause heroes must be brave and strong Marching along with heads up high A sight that couldn't last forever Oh no, oh no, oh no A prayer sent up to heaven But tears will fall, prayers can't win it all The firing line will soon appear Once proud, but now they all have fear To see the other face to face There's no more pity, no more grace They marched along with heads up high A sight that couldn't last forever Oh no, oh no, oh no A prayer sent up to heaven But tears will fall, prayers can't win it all Move along, marching on, heads up to the sky All together, victory's in sight Moving on, marching on, soldiers in the night Let's enjoy a glorious delight Move along, marching on, heads up to the sky All together, victory's in sight Moving on, marching on, soldiers in the night Let's enjoy a glorious delight
