When Morning Breaks

When morning breaks, I'll be gone

When morning breaks, I'll be gone

And where I go, I do not know

When morning breaks, I'll be gone

The Captain read off my name

The Captain read off my name

The regiment is marching to war

The Captain read off my name

The drums are rolling for war

The drums are rolling for war

The lines are forming, to wait for the morning

To wait for the cruel cannon's roar

I'll breathe your name through the fire

I'll breathe your name through the fire

I'll breathe your name to bring me home again

I'll breathe your name through the fire

The drums are rolling for war

The drums are rolling for war

The lines are forming, to wait for the morning

To wait for the cruel cannon's roar

When morning breaks I'll be gone
