Lyrics

Suddenly today something's really hit home
I'm surrounded by love but feeling all alone
Great mixtures of families, some cheerful yet so sad
In reflection of the memories, the good times that we've had

My friends and I, lads together once more
But we're not playing games this time, it's real and it's war
And we'll look out for each other, please write us each day
And we'll pray to our god to keep deaths door away

Chorus.
But today from this station is the leaving of Rye
From which some may return, many will die
And our hearts are hanging heavy as we board the train
Could this be the last time, I will see you again

But now my dear Anna's face is now showing the strain
Trying to be brave for me,
feeling my pain
And knowing all the comfort that she's brought into my life
I swear on my return I'll make her my wife

Chorus.

I remember as a young boy, I wanted things so fast
If only I knew then, each day could be my last
Then I would freeze all time for ever
Make each day last for a year
There would be no more wars, suffering or fear

Chorus.
