The Boys Back Home (Glasgow Green Version)歌词完整版

I shut my eyes and pray that Christmas

will be over and done

My friends at home will meet

and have their fun

I had a dream last night

That they had to go to war

All the boys were dutifully answering

Their country’s call

And I was crying at the fact that they’d die

And they’d never be men

But the fact is I don’t know them now

But I knew them then

One of them has had to leave his house

that’s just down the road

They’re building lots of new flats in the neighbourhood

and knocking down the old

Another found a job

at the local TV station

Another left the country

so he could find his vocation

And one of them still calls me

and we meet by the lakes

I tell him almost everything

Apart from how much my heart aches

For the boys

Now I’ve known them all since childhood

Some better, some less

But in the dream, I loved them all the same

And I held them to my chest

And when I saw their faces

I spoke each one of their names

As if I was giving them a blessing

Or shielding them from pain

But the fact is I was

Naming angels in my sleep

And the boys will stay the same

No matter which road I pick
