INTRO:
INTRODUZIONE:
1ST VERSE:
1° VERSO:
We were the children of '45
We were the children of '45
Loaded like pistols and taught how to die
Loaded like pistols and taught how to die
We looked the enemy straight in the eye (And never surrendered)
Abbiamo guardato il nemico dritto negli occhi (e non ci siamo mai arresi)
Through trenches dug in the back of my mind
Through trenches dug in the back of my mind
I go over the top time after time
I go over the top time after time
Me and the ones we left behind (Faces I'll always remember)
Io e quelli che ci siamo lasciati alle spalle (volti che ricorderò sempre)
CHORUS:
CORO:
Now there's no fight left within me
Now there's no fight left within me
But the writing of this wrong
But the writing of this wrong
As nations we're divided, but as people we are one
Come nazioni siamo divisi, ma come persone siamo uno
Like brothers in blood, it seems that we've been
Like brothers in blood, it seems that we've been
Too long a soldier
Troppo a lungo soldato
2ND VERSE:
2° VERSO:
In the city of monuments
Nella città dei monumenti
Among the flags of all governments
Among the flags of all governments
The order of battle is written in the shadows of a hard black line
L'ordine di battaglia è scritto nell'ombra di una dura linea nera
Where people cry for a nation's scars
Where people cry for a nation's scars
And heroes sleep beneath a blanket of stars
And heroes sleep beneath a blanket of stars
Too young to die, but never too old to play the General's game
Troppo giovane per morire, ma mai troppo vecchio per stare al gioco del Generale
CHORUS:
CORO:
Now there's no life left within them
Now there's no life left within them
But the memory lingers on
Ma il ricordo persiste
As nations we're divided, but as people we are one
Come nazioni siamo divisi, ma come persone siamo uno
For brothers in blood we sing that we've been
For brothers in blood we sing that we've been
Too long a soldier
Troppo a lungo soldato

Eternal flames blow in the wind,
Eternal flames blow in the wind,
I've been too long a soldier
I've been too long a soldier
Captain of the Guard, I'm coming in
Captain of the Guard, I'm coming in
Too long, too long a soldier
Too long, too long a soldier
I've seen so much worth dying for

Soldiers gone before me
I soldati se ne sono andati prima di me
I will surely fade away
Sicuramente svanirò
My eyes have seen the glory, and the suffering and the pain
