Story behind the song
Inspired by a piece by the composer 'Astor Piazolla'
Lyrics
Standing with my brethren on the verge
Taking a deep breath before the great
Plunge that swallows us whole
And the fear takes hold
Don’t know if I’ll see the sun rise again
And how many I greet for the last time
The only thing that sees me through is
Knowing somewhere out there you’re thinking of me
Wishing me on to do a noble deed
And your love stops me from running
Whatever you’ve got…keep it coming
So I ride out to meet my destiny
Your words somewhere deep inside me
Makes sure I’ll never run away
Cos they’ve never lead me astray
And when the moment comes
I’ll do it all just for you
How I long to hold you
Forget all the reasons why I do
Ill on others for the sake of a flag
How I hope to come…back
Old men talking and young men dying
So many widows left crying
That’s why I so far away from you
But somehow your light shines through
I swear to you I shall return
And feel no more of war’s burn
I’ll hold you in my arms at least on more time
When I finish…my crime
