Mother's Little Soldier

so tired, so lonely, so in between the lines,
a notice in the papers now and then
so useless, so crazy, so very few will know,
but mothers care is the only care that counts
someone makes a bigger plan,
sends him off to foreign land,
dreaming as they march along,
when tomorrow comes, they be back in your arms
so frozen, so broken, so left behind in life,
he’ll never see if the world will pay the price
so angry, so shameful, so helplessly insane
when words gets stuck they don’t mean too much at all
someone makes a bigger plan,
sends him off to foreign land,
dreaming as they march along,
when tomorrow comes, he’ll be back in your arms
so put your weary mind to rest,
let the night prepare the best,
dreaming as they march along,
when tomorrow comes, he’ll be back in your arms
someone makes a bigger plan,
sends him off to foreign land,
dreaming as they march along,
when tomorrow comes, he’ll be back in your arms
so put your weary mind to rest,
let the night prepare the best,
dreaming as they march along,
when tomorrow comes, he’ll be back in your arms
