Lyrics
Oh we ll lay down our weapons, if only we had known what danger lay ahead, soon the war would be over and we d be returnin
the time will come for you and me
We d face the fighting with a smile or so we said, just lads from the farms and boys from the cities, on remembrance day
On remembrance day, there ll be no more fighting
we came from kingston and brighton to fight on the front line
We ll be goin home when this bloody war is ended, by september of 18 cambrai had fallen, the guns will be silent
well the guns will be silent
you know we ll all be free and the bells of peace will ring again
The sky turned to grey as we went into battle, soon the war would be over and we d be returnin Remembrance, we d face the fighting with a smile or so we said
One day soon i don t know when, on remembrance day
We d face the fighting with a smile or so we said, on the fields of europe young men were fallin Bryan, there ll be no more fighting
i ll be back for you someday it won t be long
One day soon i don t know when, don t forget me while i m gone far away
On remembrance day say a little prayer, the guns will be silent
Don t forget me while i m gone far away, just lads from the farms and boys from the cities
On remembrance day, on remembrance day, we came from kingston and brighton to fight on the front line
for our king and our country and the promise of glory
There ll be no more fighting, i ll be back for you someday it won t be long, well it won t be long til i m back there in your arms again
Not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches, well it won t be long til i m back there in your arms again Adams, if only we had known what danger lay ahead
Soon the war would be over and we d be returnin, not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches
The time will come for you and me, not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches
not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches
Don t forget me while i m gone far away, you know we ll all be free and the bells of peace will ring again
On remembrance day, you know we ll all be free and the bells of peace will ring again, on remembrance day
Oh we ll lay down our weapons, soon the war would be over and we d be returnin, on remembrance day say a little prayer
on remembrance day
For our king and our country and the promise of glory, don t forget me while i m gone far away Adams, by september of 18 cambrai had fallen
don t forget me while i m gone far away
We ll all say a prayer, not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches
well the guns will be silent
On remembrance day say a little prayer, well the guns will be silent
On the fields of europe young men were fallin, we came from kingston and brighton to fight on the front line
We ll all say a prayer, the guns will be silent
I ll be back for you someday it won t be long, for our king and our country and the promise of glory
Don t forget me while i m gone far away, well it won t be long til i m back there in your arms again
don t forget me while i m gone far away
if i can just hold on til this bloody war is over
we ll be goin home when this bloody war is ended
not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches
Don t forget me while i m gone far away, on remembrance day
The time will come for you and me, if only we had known what danger lay ahead
On remembrance day, by september of 18 cambrai had fallen Day, oh we ll lay down our weapons
Well the guns will be silent, on remembrance day say a little prayer, the guns will be silent
