GUARDIA LA NOCHE OSCURA
DARK NIGHT ESCRITA POR UN SOLDADO
The night is dark and I’m far from home
While I sit inside my bunker and feel all so alone
The night is cold, and the rain is coming in
While I stand beside my rifle, and I think of where I’ve been
I think about my mother, my sister and my dad
I think of all our good times, the bad times, and the sad
I think about a girl, another place, another time
I think of all her beauty and a time when she was mine
And so, they sent us far away to fight a dirty war
A mother won’t see her son again, she’ll lose the child she bore
So, boy enjoy your good times, enjoy them while you can
For soon they’ll send you far away and they’ll call you a man
