Call to Arms

The telegram came today It's taking me far away Away from the ones I love I put my faith in God above We march towards the sound of distant guns White fire lighting up the sky We came to fight and die in fields of blood We follow the call to arms I'll write you every day Hope our love won't fade away You give me strength to carry on Until the final day is done This hell, this hell is where we live and die We fall, comrades by our side We pray to make it through another day To follow the call to arms If I die, please don't forget me If I live, I wanna live free We pray to God these days will end And bring us back safe to your arms I saved all your letters I keep them pressed close to my heart And they won't stop a bullet They just keep me closer to you than apart We live We gotta live free We die Remember me We pray To make it through another day To follow the call to arms A telegram came today It's taking me far away Away from the ones I love I put my faith in God above
