Cliff Charlesworth taking a staging status.
Houston, you are go for staging.
Downrange 35 miles, 30 miles high
Standing by for the outboard engine
No love, no dreams, oh my lady
The bells are ringing on that day
I'll not be back, I'll not be seen
I am the soldier sent away
Lost in a cold, forgotten war
Because of some forgotten words
About something I've never heard
No love, dreams, oh my lady
The bells were ringing on that day
And I remember autumn leaves
Sweeping through the empty streets
And when at last I heard the news
About a war I did not choose
I saw the flowers fade away
what do we learn across the years?
No one's season, no one hears
Loveless gods are looking on
and there's no way through
And when you get the news
You won't be able to believe the stories
No one can see the stories
What do we learn across the years
When no one sees and no one hears
Loveless gods in silent state
Looking on with cold disdain
No love, no dreams, oh my lady
In this lonely no man's land
Just a warlord's bloody hands
So when at last I heard the news
About a war I did not choose
I saw the flowers fade away
