Belle and Sebastian I Fought in a War歌词

I Fought In A War / Belle & Sebastian

I fought in a war

and I left my friends behind me

To go looking for the enemy,

and it wasn't very long

Before I would stand

with another boy in front of me

And a corpse that just fell into me,

with the bullets flying round

And I reminded myself of the words you said

when we were getting on

And I bet you're making shells back home

for a steady boy to wear

Round his neck, well it won't hurt to think of you

as if you're waiting for

This letter to arrive

because I'll be here quite a while

I fought in a war

and I left my friends behind me

To go looking for the enemy,

and it wasn't very long

Before I found out

that the sickness there ahead of me

Went beyond the bedsit infamy

of the decade gone before

And I reminded myself of the words you said

when we were getting on

And I bet you're making shells back home

for a steady man to wear

Round his neck, well it won't hurt to think of you

as if you're waiting for

This letter to arrive

because I'll be here quite a while

I fought in a war,

and I didn't know where it would end

It stretched before me infinitely,

I couldn't really think

Of the day beyond now,

keep your head down pal

There's trouble plenty in this hour, this day

I can see hope I can see light

And I reminded myself of the looks you gave

when we were getting on

And I bet you're making shells back home

for a steady man to wear

Round his neck, well it won't hurt to think of you

as if you're waiting for

This letter to arrive

because I'll be here quite a while
