Lyrics

I take my time
I am the boon of a sound nation
My spirit whines
It feeds my arms as they carry on
And the past calls
And the past calls
I hide my fear
I take her hand in a quiet hour
And tell my stories
To sots and fools who done drown their pain
And the past calls
And the past calls around
Only to hold you in my mind
I cannot be the soldier all the time
Only to hold you in my mind
I cannot be the soldier all the time
And the cannon lights
And the halls all shivering
And a fool inside
And the bands all blasting stone
Cause I'm a poor boy
And I'm better on my knees
And I'll bite the sound
Of a brother's injury
And the rain of fire
And the broken tambourines
And the heat of lies
Will deface the ivory
And I will not stand
Like a puppet with a mark
No I will not stand
For a terror in the dark
And the past calls
And the past calls
And the past calls
And the past calls around
Only to hold you in my mind
I cannot be the soldier all the time
Only to hold you in my mind
I cannot be the soldier all the time
Only to hold you in my mind
I cannot be the soldier all the time
Only to hold you in my mind
I cannot be the soldier all the time
