Lyrics
Soldier On
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.
Who wants to know
All that is gold is rusting
No one will know
When seasons cease to change and…
How far we've gone
How far we're going
It's the here and the now
And the love for the sound
Of the moments that keep us moving
Waves crash along
The battered, lonely lighthouse
Tomorrow she's gone
And if not, someday somehow
Are these hands a waste
Well this side of mortality is
Scaring me to death
To death
Don't think about it at all
Just keep your head low
And don't think about it all
Soldier on, soldier on
Keep your heart close to the ground
Soldier on, soldier on, keep your heart
Close to the ground
Don't think about it all
Just keep your head low
Don't think about it
At all
Yeah, will you take me tonight
Yeah, will you take me tonight
Yeah, will you take me tonight
Ooooh... tonight
Soldier on
Soldier on
Keep your heart
Close to the ground
