A Soldier's Dream
A modern interpretation of the 1918 song "A Soldier's Dream" by Byron Gay.
Time Period: The Great War/ WW1
Original lyrics:
Out in the land of heroes
When shadows of twilight fall
And the night keeps the sun in hiding
Til it hears the morning call
Tis then when the soul is weary of all that the day time has done
Tis then when the soldier dreams of happy days to come
Thousands of dreams are for dreamers
But a soldier can dream only one
He dreams of a home and mother
He dreams of the days gone
A cottage ‘mongst the trees
The humming of the bees
And a mother’s lullaby
He dreams of the land of “No Man”
And there thru the clouds of war
Comes a light thru the night
And the world seems bright
Returning to home once more.
There is a land of promise
A land that is bright and fair,
A land filled with love and kindness
For all who may enter there,
A land with smiling faces
[Chorus]
It’s heaven and peace is the door
But a soldier to get with in
Must fight thru the fire of war
Fight for what’s right so that victory
Will his fireside and loved ones restore
