Soldier lyrics

I met him down by the bay,

he said life is a stranger

that wont go away.

He took me by surprise,

and I felt for the first time,

what its like to be alive

I’m a soldier,

but I don’t know how to fight.

I’m your best friend

but I’m scared to see you tonight.

I’m the darkness,

but I want to be the light,

oh how I want to be,

oh how I want to be.

I met him down by the sea,

said I look like someone he knew.

I said I don’t know anyone,

so how could I possibly know you.

He touched my hand,

finally I understand

what it means to be here with you.

I’m a soldier,

but I don’t know how to fight.

I’m your best friend

but I’m scared to see you tonight.

I’m the darkness,

but I want to be the light,

oh how I want to be,

oh how I want to be.
