Trench Prayer

Lyrics

The many wars we run The clock right down to none Just to play faithful to The cause you claim is just I want an orange tree I live in falling leaves Just shooting through the rain Wish it were watering Say a word for the ones sailing away Say a prayer for the young sailing away, sailing away Say a word for the ones sailing away If the sun come in, gentle rays If the wine get poured, sweet the taste This burial ain't grave This is a joyous change On pointed toes we wait Dissolving of the state In documented form I dream a safe return It's just a thought I hold Until that coming day
