The Soldier's Dream© words and music by doug payne/ bios36 2007
G Em
There is a place, in a soldier's dream,
C G D
so peaceful like no other.
G Em
It is the safest place they've been,
C G D
the arms of their sweet mother.
B7 Em
It is a place where the flowers grow,
C G D
sweet rains are softly falling?
Csus Cm
It is the place my children go,
Am7 D C G
and I can hear you calling.
We're fighting for a soldier's dreams,
my home, my love, my freedom.
I'm still not sure what victory means,
but Ill do what must be done.
It's a mountain top, where a cool breeze blows,
a bell bird call still ringing,
a pretty song my baby knows,
the one she's always singing.
It is a place where the flowers grow,
sweet rains softly falling.
It is a place my children go,
and I can hear you calling.
It is the place our soldiers come,
when they need to hold their lover.
It is the race our youngsters run
in love with one another.
We're fighting for a soldiers dream,
my home, my love, my freedom.
I'm still not sure what victory means,
but I'll do what must be done.
It is the place where the flowers grow,
sweet rains softly falling.
It is the place my children go,
and I can hear you calling.......END.
