For our king and our country and the promise of glory We came from kingston and brighton to fight on the front line Just lads from the farms and boys from the cities Not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches Wed face the fighting with a smile - or so we said If only we had known what danger lay ahead
The sky turned to grey as we went into battle On the fields of europe young men were fallin Ill be back for you someday - it wont be long If I can just hold on til this bloody war is over The guns will be silent on remembrance day
Therell be no more fighting on remembrance day By october of 18 cambrai had fallen Soon the war would be over and wed be returnin Dont forget me while Im gone far away Well it wont be long till Im back there in your arms again The guns will be silent on remembrance day Well all say a prayer on remembrance day One day soon - I dont know when You know well all be free and the bells of peace will ring again The time will come for you and me Well be goin home when this bloody war is ended The guns will be silent on remembrance day Well all say a prayer on remembrance day
On remembrance day - say a little prayer On remembrance day Well the guns will be silent Therell be no more fighting Oh well lay down our weapons On remembrance day
