Short Life Lyrics

The short life of trouble
Few more days of war
The short life of trouble
Few more days, a few more days

I know what you promised
It's been some time ago
You promised you would marry me
Standing on the ballroom floor

The short life of trouble
Few more days of war

I see the train a coming
Coming by a station
Now I'd rather be dead or in my grave
In the sea by dawn and go

Short life of trouble
Few more days of war
The short life of trouble
Few more days, a few more days
