Yellow Rain

Tears in his eyes The fear, oh it never dies The echoes of the past Are rolling on and on For those who were left back Tomorrow never comes Oh, it never comes And after all these years Something still remains The forever repercussions The eternal pain Another sleepless night And another break of day It doesn't matter anymore His life will fade away In yellow rain They crossed the water Back in '69 They fought for glory Behind the enemy lines Fighting for the nations Pushed into the war Without not even knowing why Or what they're fighting for Oh, oh Out on the plains Some are the masters Some are the slaves Oh, oh War is a never-ending mission You're just a pawn in a game Where the number is your name Left home as heroes Fools when they returned Blamed for all the damage And the villages they burned Betrayed by their leaders Murderers they were called Denounced as crazy maniacs And locked behind the walls Oh, oh Out on the plains Some are the masters Some are the slaves Oh, oh War is a never-ending mission They are the victims Doomed to die In yellow rain We've seen them dying in the fields In yellow rain Just like a knight Who's in a fight, without a shield Oh no Try to forget, but it just won't go Oh no Forever in their memories Oh no Hell's just some thousand miles away Oh no no Oh, oh Out on the plains Some are the masters Some are the slaves Oh, oh War is a never-ending mission They are the victims Doomed to die --- Yellow Rain - Pretty Maids
