Fires Of Hell (Your Only Son) (The Futility Of War) Album: Sea Of Light (1995) Trevor Bolder Oh, I was born your only son And I will think of you Before this day is done The fires of hell surround me now So I must fight for freedom Against their raging guns In all my life I never said How much I loved you In all this time I never really said I cared This war is wrong and so I write these words Before I give my life to the Somme In all my life I never said How much I loved you In all this time I never really knew you The fires of hell surround me, oh The guns of hell will Take my breath away From my life this day The fires of hell surround me, oh The words I say Must never disappear Keep them locked inside your heart I can hear the piper's song And it will play for me Before this day is done So I will hold my head up high If I must give my life To stop their raging guns Oh, I was born your only son And I thank god for that and That that will be done |
