Let me lie
(A soldiers last wish)
Let me lie with my comrades who were lost in the war
Let me lie in peace overlooking this remote shore
Let me lie with my comrades in this plot so small
Let me lie with those who will never age at all
œ
Remember my comrades in the cold dark sea
Remember those who have no headstone to see
Let me lie with my comrades in this land far away
Let me lie while you pray that there will be peace one day
