Lyrics

MARCHING BAND

Little soldier
You were trained to be tough
It's no wonder
I fought so hard for your love

On the day I said goodbye
I had the words but couldn't cry
Something tells me you know exactly what that's like

In my dreams, I hold your hand in mine
On the street, a marching band goes by
And we're secretly happy the crowd is wild and the horns are loud
We don't speak but I think I understand you now

I heard your story
From someone else's mouth
I'd say I'm sorry
But there's no telling you now

It's so hard to keep things real
Even after all the wounds have healed
Something tells me you know exactly how I feel
In my dreams I take your hand in mine
While on the street a marching band goes by
And we're perfectly happy those horns are loud
We don't speak but I think I understand you now
We don't speak but I think I understand you now

In my dreams I take your hand in mine
While on the street that same old marching band goes by
And we're perfectly happy those horns are screaming out
We don't speak but I think I understand you now
In my dreams I think you understand me now
