Belleau Wood Şarkı Sözleri

Belleau Wood - Belleau Wood lyrics - Belleau Wood şarkı sözleri




Oh the snow flakes fell in silence

Over Belleau Wood that night

For a Christmas truce had been declared

By both sides of the fight

As we laid there in our trenches

The silence broke in two

By a German soldier singing

A song that we all knew


Though I did not know the language

The song was Silent Night

Then I heard my buddy whisper

"All is calm, all is bright"

Then the fear and doubt surrounded me

Cause I'd die if I was wrong

But I stood up in my trench

And I began to sing along


Then across the frozen battlefield

Another's voice joined in

Until one by one each man became

A singer of the hymn


Then I thought I was dreaming

For right there in my sight

Stood the German soldier

Neath the falling flakes of white

And he raised his hand and smiled at me

As if seemed to say

Here's hoping we both live to see

Us find a better way


Then the devils clock struck midnight

And the skies lit up again

And the battlefield where heaven stood

Was blown to hell again


But for just one fleeting moment

The answer seemed so clear

Heaven's not beyond the clouds

Its just beyond the fear


No heaven's not beyond the clouds

It's for us to find here
