Mother's Little Soldier

So tired, so lonely, so in between the lines
A notice in the papers now and then
So useless, so crazy, so very few will know
But mothers care is the only care that counts

Someone makes a bigger plan
Sends him off to foreign land
Dreaming as they march along
When tomorrow comes, they be back in your arms

So frozen, so broken, so left behind in life
He'll never see if the world will pay the price
So angry, so shameful, so helplessly insane
When words gets stuck they don't mean too much at all

Someone makes a bigger plan
Sends him off to foreign land
Dreaming as they march along
When tomorrow comes, he'll be back in your arms

So put your weary mind to rest
Let the night prepare the best
Dreaming as they march along
When tomorrow comes, he'll be back in your arms

Someone makes a bigger plan
Sends him off to foreign land
Dreaming as they march along
When tomorrow comes, he'll be back in your arms

So put your weary mind to rest
Let the night prepare the best
Dreaming as they march along
When tomorrow comes, he'll be back in your arms
