Farewell to Arms

In this our life on Earth

Another dawn we face

Is this the moment of truth

For the whole human race

Is that the last man down

Is that the last life laid to waste

Can we find in our hearts

Each and every dream we've misplaced

Before Heaven cries tears

On the mountain we climb

Farewell to arms

Rest in peace

May the rain of freedom be released

Farewell to arms

We just can't walk away

We're all sharing this Earth at the end of the day

So when the cold wind bites

And the mad dogs speak

However dark is your night

Just keep turning your cheek

'Cause when the last shot's fired

It is then the world will be free

And still we are asking

Just how long will it be

Though we're blown by the crosswinds

We stand like a tree

Farewell to arms

Rest in peace

May the rain of freedom be released

Farewell to arms

We just can't walk away

We're all sharing this earth at the end of the day

Down this road we've wandered for so many years

With every step we take

We can tear down all frontiers

Make no mistake

Farewell to arms

Rest in peace

May the rain of freedom be released
