Текст пісні
Like a summer day goes by
As a drop on a smile
This may be the last goodbye
Cause if he chose
Never to give it a try
He'd lose his own war
Fall on death row
Though now he'll never fly high as a kite
With nothing else in mind but dreams and hopes
He's standing tall and proud, ready to fight
Strength and holiness of a soldier that cries
He's sailing for lands of pain
Where there's no place to hide
Tries to take the ocean's wind and hold it inside
Not fueled by the breath of life
He opens his eyes, he knows death row
Though now he'll never fly high as a kite
With nothing else in mind but dreams and hopes
He's standing tall and proud, ready to fight
Strength and holiness of a soldier that cries
No one is around him
Just the beat of his own drums
The sound of his steps
In the silence of bombs and guns
Marching right into the flames
Falling and standing again
Just an ordinary hero
Fighting till the end
He's been deep in blood and tears
As he bathed into fears
And he ripped a life from earth
With his own hands
He returned a different man
With death in his heart
But life as one
Though now he'll never fly high as a kite
With nothing else in mind but dreams and hopes
He's standing tall and proud, ready to fight
Strength and holiness of a soldier that cries
