The Trooper

You'll take my life but I'll take yours too,
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through,
So when you're waitng for the next attack,
You better stand there's no turning back.

The buggle sounds the charge begins,
But on this battlefield no one wins,
The smell of acrid smoke and horse's breathe,
As you purge into certain death.

The horse he sweats with fear,
We break to run the mighty roar of the Russian guns,
And as we race towards the human wall,
The screams of pain as my comrades fall.

We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground,
And as the Russians fire another round,
We get so near tet so far away,
We won't live to fight another day.

We get so close near enough to fight,
When a Russian gets me in his sights,
He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow,
A burst of rounds takes my horse below.

And as I lay there gazing at the sky,
My body's numb and my throat is dry,
And as I lay forgotten and alone,
Without a tear I draw my parting groan.

Ode To My Family

Understand the things I say don't turn away from me,
Cause I've spent half of my life out there you wouldn't disagree.

Do you see me do you see?
Do you like me do you like me standing there?

Do you notice do you know,
Do you see me do you see me?
Does anyone care?

Unhappiness where's when I was young and we didn't give a damn,
Cause we were raised to see life as fun and take it if we can.

My Mother...
My Mother she'd hold me,
She'd hold me when I was out there.

My Father...
My Father he liked me,
He liked me does anyone care?

Understand what I've become it wasn't my design,
And people everywhere think something better than I am.

But I miss you I miss..
Cause I liked it,
Cause I liked it when I was out there.

Do you know this?
Do you know you did not find me!
You did not find does anyone care?

Unhappiness words when I was young and we didn't give a damn!
Cause we were raised to see life as fun and take it if we can.

My Mother...
My Mother she'd hold me,
She'd hold me when I was out there.

My Father...
My Father he liked me,
He liked me does anyone care?

Does anyone care?
Does anyone care?
Does anyone care?
Does anyone care?

When Love And Hate Collide

You could have a change of heart if you would only change your mind,
Instead of slamming down the phone Girl for the hundredth time,
I got your number on my wall but I ain't gonna make that call,
When divided we stand united we fall?

Got the time I got a chance I'm gonna make it,
Got my hands on your heart gonna take it?
All I know I can't fight this way!

You could have a change of heart,
If you would only change your mind,
Cause I'm crazy about you Baby time after time.

Without you one night alone is like a year without you, Baby,
Do you have a heart of stone?
Without you I can't stop the hurt inside when love and hate collide.

I don't wanna fight no more I don't know what we're fighting for,
The way we treat each other Baby is like an act of war,
I could tell a million lies but it would come as no surprise,
When the truth is like a stranger it hits you right between the eyes.

There's a time and a place and a reason,
And I know I got a love to believe in,
All I know I got to win this time!

Without you one night alone is like a year without you Baby,
Do you have a heart of stone?
Without you I can't stop the hurt inside when love and hate collide.

You could have a change of heart,
If you would only change your mind,
Cause I'm crazy about you Baby!

Crazy!
Crazy!

Without you one night alone is like a year without you Baby,
Do you have a heart of stone?
Without you one night alone is like a year without you Baby,
If you have a heart at all,
Without you I can't stop the hurt inside when love and hate collide.

Love Is On The Way

Lonely sidewalks silent night,
Bring the evening eeep inside,
Hold me Darling touch me now,
Let the feelings free tonight.

Love is on the way I can see it in your eyes,
Let's give it one more try tonight, Baby,
Love is on the way I can see it in your eyes,
Let's give it one more try tonight.

Let's stop the hands of time.

Let's give it one more try tonight,
Love is on the way I can see it in your eyes,
Let's give it one more try tonight.
