Lyrics

Tears
My darling, don’t cry, cry over me
By now I’m long gone, somewhere over seas
Fighting in some foreign country far, far away
Oh I’m swimming in blood. My hands are not clean
So many lost lives, and for what, I can’t see
Oh I’m so afraid I won’t be seeing another day
My biggest regrets come to torment and hurt me
I refrain from my fear as I get down and pray
When I looked up to heaven, I saw the sun like a face
God are you there, bringing me to tears
To tears
I’m in a war that was born by violence and greed
Destroying many homes, many souls, people’s dreams
So forgive me if no smile is found, my joy has decayed
Though my body is cut, it’s the heart that most bleeds
Oh, death sometimes whispers, “I’ll give you relief”
Maybe it’s better to die than to wait for our hearts to change
Oh tomorrow come if you may, life is borrowed
I’m just a slave to the burrows, my brothers they're dying
Cry oh mothers, weep and mourn
Tomorrow if you come, if you don’t take these sorrows
Bury them with my bones. Tell my lover
To meet me again by the golden gates when she gets home
Oh tomorrow come if you may, life is borrowed
I’m just a slave to the burrows, my brothers they're dying
Cry oh mothers, weep and mourn
Tomorrow if you come, if you don’t take these sorrows
Bury them with my bones. Tell my lover
To meet me again by the golden gates when she gets home
My darling don’t cry, cry over me
By now I’m long gone, somewhere over seas
Fighting in some foreign country far, far away
