Gloria
1.
Duty takes you far away
I think about you every day
Wishing youa€™d come home to stay
Safe with me
2.
I dona€™t pretend to understand
Why you sleep in a foreign land
But you go where they command
Away from me
Chorus:
Oh, I have captured every smile
They keep you close however far
You may be away from me
My Eastern Star
I hear your voice, I hear you say
That ita€™s snowing where you are
As long as you are safe and sound
Then Gloria
3.
During every silent night
Your memory is held so tight
As if to keep you safe a€˜till light
Stay with me
4.
Then throughout each passing day
With every thought that goes astray
I bring you back and then I pray
Youa€™re still with me
Chorus:
Bridge:
Therea€™s no reason, therea€™s no rhyme
Why you wona€™t stay safe and that in time
Those freedom bells will loudly chime, Gloria
But until then I will stand, behind the flag of everyman
That calls for peace throughout our lands, Gloria
Chorus:
