I wish desperately I�d been blown
to smithereens
so I could not limp out of the battle tonight

I saw something it seems
that I wouldn�t have been
had I not stayed with you all this time

I fell folly to fortune
came somehow to love you
but I�m just a foolish little thing

I�d be brave but I�m tired
I�d be bold but I�m too young
to fight what I think I could keep

So I parade onward
so I blaze my own path
so I am a soldier for love
