Intro

, , , , , , , , , stop,

The moon lights up over the battlefield now,

 With a blistering heat somehow

 Lifeless, limp and broken hearts are dead,

 I should have just stayed home instead

 Stayed alive.

We'll letter arrives

It glistens’ in mothers eyes

 She wonders where when and why

 She could have tucked him in his bed,

 With a kiss on the cheek and his head

 He'd stay alive

(Chorus)

Well the moon and the stars can't cast shadows on what is wrong

 Well our boys are dead, they’ve been mislead.

 Nothing more

The sun wakes up, bring sparkles in the morning light,

 Rubs her belly bows her head to cry, she lost him before they were wed

 But he’s there in her heart and her head, he’ll stay alive

Chorus) X2

Well the moon and the stars can't cast shadows of what is wrong

 Well our boys are dead, they’ve been mislead.

 Nothing more

The moon lights up over the battlefield now.
