Lyrics

[Verse 1]
These mist covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is the lowlands
And always will be
Some day you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And no longer burn
To be brothers in arms
[Verse 2]
Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I've witnessed your suffering
As the battle raged high
And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms
[Verse 3]
There's so many different worlds
And million different suns
And we have just one world
We live in different ones
[Verse 4]
Now the sun's gone to hell end
And the moon's riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it's written in the stars of light
And every line in your palm
We're fools to make war
On our brothers in arms
