Lyrics
Soldiers Of The Heart
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The park was a cathedral as we praised for his songs
And the contributions made to one and all
And we lit a thousand candles and sang his very best
And wept to see the greatness of him fall
Then all at once I looked around, recognized my friends
The ones I used to stand with long ago
And I wondered through my tears where we've been all these years
And how we ever grew so far apart I swear I'll never know
'Cause we were soldiers of the heart
Fit together hand in glove
Marching in the name of heaven
For a world of peace and love
Just because we're older now
Doesn't mean we lost the fight
I can feel it in the air tonight
We'll be soldiers of the heart
'Til we fill this world with light
And we held each other tightly as we swayed beneath the sky
And I felt the pain inside begin to free
And I thought if all this planet could just hold each other once
What release and revelation there would be
So I thank you all you dreamers for allowing us this time
To remember who we are and what we're for
For we stand again together with a power that's been renewed
Ain't nothing, nobody's gonna shake us anymore
'Cause we were soldiers of the heart
Fit together hand in glove
Marching in the name of heaven
For a world of peace and love
Just because we're older now
Doesn't mean we lost the fight
I can feel it in the air. . .
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
Marching in the name of heaven
For a world of peace and love
Just because we're older now
Doesn't mean we lost the fight
I can feel it in the air tonight
We'll be soldiers of the heart
'Til we fill this world with light
