When I was young I took an oath
To fight for love and faith and hope
But how was I to have known
I would have to face myself, my cover blown
Yeah I was shaken by what I saw
Something in you breaks when you watch your comrades fall
Even now I suppose the battle's not yet over
And I'm just another soldier
On the field of love
Marching blind through the dark
Somehow it fell on me to lead the charge
I was wounded, I bear the scar
And wear it like a badge of courage on my heart
So sound the bugle and beat the drums
The sky has turned blood-red at the setting of the sun
Even now, heaven knows, the battle's not yet over
And I'm just another soldier
On the field of love
Should I go down on this hallowed ground
Surely more of us are willing to try for love
Willing to die
To fight for love and faith and hope
But how was I to have known
I would have to face myself, my cover blown
Yeah I was shaken by what I saw
Something in you breaks when you watch your comrades fall
Even now I suppose the battle's not yet over
And I'm just another soldier
On the field of love
Marching blind through the dark
Somehow it fell on me to lead the charge
I was wounded, I bear the scar
And wear it like a badge of courage on my heart
So sound the bugle and beat the drums
The sky has turned blood-red at the setting of the sun
Even now, heaven knows, the battle's not yet over
And I'm just another soldier
On the field of love
Should I go down on this hallowed ground
Surely more of us are willing to try for love
Willing to die
