lyrics

Hiking through fields to the pill box down the lane
Preparing to meet up with the gang
Hearing the roar of the fighters overhead
Plotting the master plan
Thinking out loud due to the smokers at the back
Forgetting the task at hand

(Chorus)
Oh what a thing
Oh what a thing to remember
And oh what a thing
Propelling you off for the cause
Surviving the dangerous game
Pushing on through the campaign
As you wrestle yourself away from the fake applause

Laid in the bedsit waiting for the clock to tick
Dust concentrated on the shelves
Dirty dishes piled up high inside the sink
Hiding inside yourself
But then there’s the stage and its constant steady draw
Maybe it’s worth the risk

Passing the time between the rest stops on the road
Reaching the end of the line
