Ah, fuck
I was a foreigner, some things you can’t escape
But you didn’t care at all and we were happy
We were married for just six or seven days
When the war broke out I had to leave
When I got back to my hometown, saw your people killing mine
But I’m trying to find my way back home to you, don’t know what to do
Won’t you take me home to the days when we were young before the chaos of this war
“Just carry on,” you said, the best is yet to come
If we carry on and on and on, on and on and on, we’ll carry!
On and on and on and on
All my letters returned to sender, assumed the worst
Had a family, the kids were happy
Learning piano, running barefoot and playing war
But I still think about when you were here
I wish you were here
Oh just take me home to the days when we were young before the chaos of this war
“Just carry on,” you said, the best is yet to come
If we carry on and on and on, on and on and on, we’ll carry!
(On and on and on and on)
Then one day I got your letter
(On and on and on and on)
You were waiting all this time
I am so guilty and beside myself, can I leave this all behind?
But I can’t make you wait no more, no more
Now you’ll take me home
To the days when we were young before the chaos of this war (the chaos of this war)
“Just carry on,” you said, the best is yet to come
If we carry on and on and on, on and on and on, we’ll carry!
(On and on and on and on/Take me home)
I am trying to be happy
(On and on and on and on/Carry on)
Someday you’ll understand
To my dear family I know
You’ll lead a better life than your old man
In pictures, how you’ve grown
Oh, how I’ve reaped what I have
How I wanna come back home
(I have missed you so, I didn’t know
I’d feel so alone without you, take me home)
