Time and time again man heads to war Doesn't spare a thought For those he shot to the floor And is a soldier's bravery misplaced Could he stand and meet His victims widow face to face Tell me who gave who the right To take anybody's life? And would that man in question Be prepared himself to die, by the same knife? A sound like thunder in the distance roars It's a twenty one gun salute For all the people who died at war Here's a twenty one gun salute And many more will die each day Though they don't know What they're fighting for Never wake again to see the children play History repeats itself once more For the twenty one gun salute And who can look a child in the eye? And tell them Daddy won't be home And then explain when they ask, Why? And who can stop the nightmares And the pain? It's just a vicious circle Going round and round again And a wreath laid at a monument Constructed for the dead Is just an insult When a war could have been prevented Through talks instead A sound like thunder in the distance roars It's a twenty one gun salute For all the people who died at war Here's a twenty one gun salute And many more will die each day Though they don't know What they're fighting for Never wake again to see the children play History repeats itself once more For the twenty one gun salute A sound like thunder in the distance roars It's a twenty one gun salute For all the people who died at war Here's a twenty one gun salute And many more will die each day Though they don't know What they're fighting for Never wake again to see the children play History repeats itself once more For the twenty one gun salute
