It Could Happen Again

Johnny Cash intro...
 "One frozen night in 1914,
 at the height of WWI,
 the unthinkable happened.
 All along the entire western front,
 the British and German soldiers
 lay down they're weapons
 in an unofficial ceast fire
 to celebrate Christmas Eve together.
 They exchanged gifts
 and saw each other as brothers.
 And that piece lasted for two more days,
 when they were ordered back to battle.
 In those few days, though,
 men remembered the true meaning of christmas
 amongst the devastation,
 and it's a story that should never be forgotten..."
 Through the smoke-filled night
 Silence rolls from both sides
 Aross a bloody battlefield
 It was a cold Christmas Eve
 In 1914
 For those who were there it seemed unreal
 As time was still the Spirit moved the soldiers
 To lay down they're arms
 Raise they're voice in song
 And pretend for awhile
 The war was over
 If it could happen then,
 It could happen again
 A world torn apart
 To join hands and hearts
 To celebrate His birth
 And peace on this Earth
 If for one magic night
 We could finally give a reason not to fight
 Maybe there's a chance .
 This time it might last
 As opposing sides approached
 Through broken words they spoke
 It wasn't long before they felt at ease
 They shared they're cigarettes
 What they had they used as gifts
 They didn't feel like enemies.
 With candles lit,
 They stood shoulder to shoulder
 And on that field they found
 True common ground
 And as they prayed
 They dreamed the war was over
 If it could happen then,
 It could happen again
 A world torn apart
 To join hands and hearts
 To celebrate His birth
 And peace on this Earth
 If for one magic night
 We could finally give a reason not to fight
 Maybe there's a chance .
 This time it might last
 If it could happen then,
 It could happen again...
