Bryan Adams Remembrance Day Lyrics

For our king and our country and the promise of glory
We came from Kingston and Brighton to fight on the front line
Just lads from the farms and boys from the cities
Not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches

We'd face the fighting with a smile or so we said
If only we had known what danger lay ahead

The sky turned to grey as we went into battle
On the fields of Europe young men were fallin'

I'll be back for you someday it won't be long
If I can just hold on 'til this b_____ war is over

The guns will be silent on Remembrance Day
There'll be no more fighting on Remembrance Day

By October of 18 Cambrai had fallen
Soon the war would be over and we'd be returnin'

Don't forget me while I'm gone far away
Well it won't be long 'till I'm back there in your arms again

The guns will be silent on Remembrance Day
There'll be no more fighting on Remembrance Day

One day soon I don't know when
You know we'll all be free and the bells of peace will ring again
The time will come for you and me
We'll be goin' home when this b_____ war is ended

The guns will be silent on Remembrance Day
We'll all save a prayer on Remembrance Day

On Remembrance Day save a little prayer
On Remembrance Day
Well the guns will be silent
There'll be no more fighting
We'll lay down our weapons
On Remembrance Day
On Remembrance Day
