Iron Maiden - These Colours Dont Run - Текст песни

Its the same in every country 
when you say you're leaving 
Left behind the loved ones 
waiting silent in the hall 
Where your're going lies adventure 
others only dream of 
Red and green light this is real 
and so you go to war 

For the passion, for the glory, 
for the memories, for the money 
You're a soldier, for your country, 
what's the difference, all the same 

Far away from the land of our birth 
We fly the flag in some foreign earth 
We sailed away like our fathers before 
These colours don't run from cold bloody war 

There is no one that will save you, 
going down in flames 
No surrender certain death you 
look it in the eye 
On the shores of tyranny you 
crashed a human wave 
Paying for my freedom with your 
lonely unmarked graves 

For the passion, for the glory, 
for the memories, for the money 
You're a soldier, for your country, 
what's the difference, all the same 

Far away from the land of our birth 
We fly the flag in some foreign earth 
We sailed away like our fathers before 
These colours don't run from cold bloody war
