Broken Soldiers Songtext

von Beccy Cole

He didn't say a word today
He just sat there in his chair
And every hour I bought a tray
But he never broke his starte

If I try too hard he pushes me away
My heart forgives a bruise or two
Sometimes he cried like a baby in my arms
And I rock him like I used to do

Do broken soldiers ever mean, is anybody on their side
In a war without an end, another hero is denied
And all the battle weary, mother are the bravest of them all
Because they'll fight the war alone
Before they'll let their broken soldiers fall

They took his uniform away, he's no good to them like this
And his wife, she couldn't stay
And he couldn't face the kids
A year of waiting for his safe return
A year of not so silent prayers
He came back but I don't recognise the man
He's still missing over there

Do broken soldiers ever mean is anybody on their side
In a war without an end another hero is denied
And all the battle weary
Mothers are the bravest of them all
Because they'll fight the war alone
Before they'll let their broken soldiers fall

He wore Australia s flag with pride he did what he did was born to do
And now my son is dead in side
What a mother supposed to do
Do broken soldiers ever mean is anybody on their side
In a war without an end another hero is denied
And I'm a battle weary mother won't someone hear my call
Because I fight the war alone before
I let my broken soldiers fall
We will fight the war alone before we let o our broken soldiers fall
