Christmas Truce

Silence Oh, I remember the silence On a cold winter day After many months on the battlefield And we were used to the violence Then all the cannons went silent And the snow fell Voices sang to me from no man's land We are all We are all We are all We are all friends! And today we're all brothers Tonight we're all friends A moment of peace in a war that never ends Today we're all brothers We drink and unite Now Christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground white Hear carols from the trenches We sing O Holy Night Our guns laid to rest among snowflakes A Christmas in the trenches A Christmas on the front far from home Madness (madness) Oh, I remember the sadness (Sadness) We were hiding our tears (Hiding our tears) In a foreign land where we faced our fears (Faced our fears) We were soldiers (Soldiers) Carried the war on our shoulders (Shoulders) For our nations (Nations) Is that why we bury our friends? (Bury our friends) We were all We were all We were all We were all friends (Yes, we were friends) And today we're all brothers Tonight we're all friends A moment of peace in a war that never ends Today we're all brothers We drink and unite Now Christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground white Hear carols from the trenches We sing O Holy Night Our guns laid to rest among snowflakes A Christmas in the trenches A Christmas on the front far from home We were all We were all We were all We were all friends (Yes, we were friends) And today we're all brothers Tonight we're all friends A moment of peace in a war that never ends Today we're all brothers We drink and unite Now Christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground white A Christmas on the frontline We walk among our friends We don't think about tomorrow The battle will commence When we celebrated Christmas We thought about our friends Those who never made it home When the battle had commenced
