That final day has come to dawn
I'm off to no-man's land
Into the barbed-wire, into the smoke
Where one's dreams turn to sand
I look to the day
when I'm back in your arms
after the pain and misery of war
When I look into your eyes
and see your smile
I know what I've been fighting for
[chorus]
I'm off to the front, you must not cry
I'd die a thousand deaths
before I'd live a lie
Your love and trust in me
is all I'd ever known
Forget me not because
one day I'm coming home
Shattered dreams lay all around me
yet my faith is strong
To see the future of you and me
keeps me carrying on
You're in my thoughts day and night
When I sleep you're in my dreams
You're my sanity in this world of madness
that's filled with cries and screams
[repeat chorus]
The train keeps on rolling
to where many before me have fell
For the blood and the glory
and the sacrifice
of a generation fighting in hell
May I be brave as those before me
Staring the shadow of death in the eye
With passion and valor
I'll stare in death's face
for I'm not afraid to die
[repeat chorus]
