[00:04.98]The strange young man who comes to me
[00:08.73]
[00:10.62]A soldier on a three day spree
[00:16.11]Who needs one night's cheap ecstasy
[00:18.18]And a woman's arms to hide him
[00:21.81]
[00:25.59]He greets me with a courtly bow
[00:27.48]And hides his pain by acting proud
[00:31.20]
[00:32.00]He drinks too much and he laughs too loud
[00:33.66]
[00:35.37]How can I deny him
[00:36.24]Let us dance beneath the moon
[00:38.43]
[00:39.93]I'll sing to you Claire de Lune'
[01:12.33]The morning always comes too soon
[01:15.33]But tonight the war is over
[01:18.78]
[01:23.19]He speaks to me in schoolboy French
[01:25.77]
[01:27.42]Of a soldier's life inside a trench
[01:30.48]
[01:32.16]Of the look of death and the ghastly stench
[01:35.16]
[01:36.12]I do my best to please him
[01:42.00]He puts two roses in a vase
[01:46.47]Two roses sadly out of place
[01:48.75]Like the gallant smile on his haggard face
[01:53.37]
[01:55.20]Playfully I tease him
[02:00.00]Hold me 'neath the Paris skies
[02:03.48]
[02:08.10]Let's not talk of how or why
[02:14.97]
[02:17.76]Tomorrow's soon enough to die
[02:19.53]
[02:20.13]But tonight the war is over
[02:24.78]
[02:25.32]We make love too hard too fast
[02:31.83]
[03:02.82]He falls asleep his face a mask
[03:07.95]He wakes with the shakes and he drinks from his flask
[03:19.08]
[03:21.18]I put my arms around him
[03:40.56]
[03:55.89]They die in the trenches and they die in the air
[03:57.45]In Belgium and France the dead are everywhere
[03:59.10]They die so fast there's no time to prepare
[04:01.35]
[04:02.10]A decent grave to surround them
[04:03.30]Old world glory old world fame
[04:06.57]The old world's gone gone up in flames
[04:14.76]Nothing will ever be the same
[04:17.55]And nothing lasts forever
[04:18.66]Oh I'd pray for him but I've forgotten how
[04:20.57]And there's nothing nothing that can save him now
[04:23.01]
[04:24.00]There's always another with the same funny bow
[04:26.40]
[04:27.18]And who am I to deny them
