Chris De Burgh - This song is for You Şarkı Sözleri

Hello darling, this is the army so I've just got this time to write.
Today we attacked.
There's no turning back.
The boys, they're all ready for the fight.

Yes I'm well but this place is like hell.
They call it 'hasheldale'.
In 1917, the war must be ending.
The general said: "This attack will not fail.".

So I'm writing down this simple little melody.
When you play it, my love, think of me.
We'll be together in this song for you.

And it goes: La la da la da da la da, la da da da la la....
That's it, darling.

They got old Bill, the sergeant is still out there, wounded in some hell hole.
They say this war will end all wars.
Oh God, I really hope it will.

How's old England?
Are they still singing those songs that we love to sing?
When all this is over we'll go sailing in Dover to catch a fish like we used to with a string.
I miss you.
I miss you.
I miss you so.
If they get me, my love, you will know we'll be together in this song for you.

And it goes: La da da, la da da da da....
I have to go now.
