A Soldier's Dream

Lyrics

Oh, the drums are so mournful
 My dear, oh, my love
 As my thoughts they are turning your way
 Where are the eyes
 I beheld with my own
 On that long ago lazy day?
 Dead are the leaves
 On the stark battlefield
 The stench of the flesh sickens me
 I sleep soaking wet a
 And the worms eat my bread
 The mourning of men fills the air
 Oh, green are the leaves
 On the old apple tree
 Those sweet perfumed blossoms of spring
 Entwined in your hair
 A smile in your eyes
 A soft blade of grass for a ring
 Oh, the drums are so mournful
 My dear, oh, my love
 As my thoughts they are turning your way
 Where are the eyes
 I beheld with my own
 On that long ago lazy day?
 On that long ago lazy day
