Harold land

Harold Land with a wave of his hand said goodbye to all that.
He paid his bills & stopped the milk, then put on his hat.
He tried to say his last farewells as quickly as he could,
Promising that he´d return, but doubted that he´d,
Doubted that he´d, doubted.

Now he has marching soldiers in the rain as on to war they rode.
A long thin line of human mind, damnation as their load.
In the mud in coldness dark, he would shiver out his fear,
What disappointing sights he would seen instead of ones so dear,
Instead of ones so dear, so dear.

Going home, He has going home to the land he loved so well.
Going home, He fought for two yeahrs, never fell.
Going home, He has going home,
Going home. He has going home.

Harold Land with a wave of his hand stood sadly on the stage,
Clutching red ribbons from a badge, but he didn´t look his age.
Only two yeahrs had passed between his leaving home & back;
He had lost his love & youth while
leading the attack, leading the attack.

In conversation it could be said,
Well after war your heart´s dead.
Well it isn´t hard to understand,
There´s no heart in Harold Land.
