Lyrics Cliff Richard

Cliff Richard

Field of Love

When I was young I took an oath

To fight for love and faith and hope

But how was I to have known

I would have to face myself, my cover blown

Yeah, I was shaken by what I saw

You know something in you breaks

When you watch your comrades fall

And even now I suppose that the battle's not yet over

And I'm just another soldier on the field of love

On the field, on the field

On the field of love

On the field

Marching blind through the dark

Somehow it fell on me to lead the charge

I was wounded, I bear the scar

Wear it like a badge of courage on my heart

So sound the bugle and beat the drums

The sky has turned blood-red at the setting of the sun

And even now Heaven knows the battle's not yet over

And I'm just another soldier on the field of love

On the field, on the field

On the field of love

On the field

On the field, on the field

On the field of love

On the field

Should I go down

On this hallow ground

Surely more of us

Are willing to try for love, willing to die

So sound the bugle and beat the drums

Yeah, I see the night is coming on at the sinking of the sun

And even now Heaven knows that the battle's never over

As long as there's a soldier on the field of love

On the field someone falls

Friend or foe still you hate the battle call

On the field shines the light

In the saying, 'Son, don't give up the fight'?

On the field someone falls

Friend or foe still you hate the battle call

On the field shines the light

In the saying, 'Son, don't give up the fight'?

On the field someone falls

Friend or foe still you hate the battle call

On the field, on the field

On the field, on the field

Keep the faith
