Tom Paxton - When Morning Breaks lyrics
[Tom Paxton - When Morning Breaks lyrics]
When morning breaks, I'll be gone
When morning breaks, I'll be gone
And where I go, I do not know
When morning breaks, I'll be gone
The Captain read off my name
The Captain read off my name
The regiment is marching to war
The Captain read off my name
The drums are rolling for war
The drums are rolling for war
The lines are forming to wait for the morning
To wait for the cruel cannons' roar!
I'll breathe your name through the fire
I'll breathe your name through the fire
I'll breathe your name to bring me home again
I'll breathe your name through the fire
The drums are rolling for war
The drums are rolling for war
The lines are forming to wait for the morning
To wait for the cruel cannons' roar!
When morning breaks, I'll be gone
When morning breaks, I'll be gone
And where I go, I do not know
When morning breaks, I'll be gone
The Captain read off my name
The Captain read off my name
The regiment is marching to war
The Captain read off my name
The drums are rolling for war
The drums are rolling for war
The lines are forming to wait for the morning
To wait for the cruel cannons' roar!
I'll breathe your name through the fire
I'll breathe your name through the fire
I'll breathe your name to bring me home again
I'll breathe your name through the fire
The drums are rolling for war
The drums are rolling for war
The lines are forming to wait for the morning
To wait for the cruel cannons' roar!
When morning breaks, I'll be gone
