Lyrics
To War
Its dawn the sun is rising
Feel it in the air
The chill of the night is
Biting in the air
Standing at the flag
Remembering those who fell
Standing at the flag
Remembering those who fell
Why must we cry?
We’re heading down that road again
Why must we stand and cry
When we’re marching down the road
To war again
Hold the little children’s hand
Help them understand
Salute your country’s flag
Pride is burning in your heart
Hold the little children’s hand
You know in time you’ll be waving them good bye
Hold the children’s hand
In a few years
We’ll be waving them goodbye……………….
Goodbye……. as send them to war
What are we fighting for?
send them to war, send them to war
As we stand here at the dawn
Standing in front of the flag
hold the little children’s hand
and hope its not them
when will our dreams subside
when will we say no
hold the little children’s hands
in a few years will they understand
When we send them to war
to war to war to war
What are we fighting for?
war to war to war
what are we fighting for?
what are we fighting for?
ooohhh to war
