Songtext Soldier in the rain England Dan & John Ford Coley

Soldier in the rain

The morning clouds are gathering around as I stand on the bridge of the
river
Years have gone since I was here and I wonder how I differ
Taxicabs keep rolling by and a blind man asks for change
And here I stand a soldier in the rain.

Coming home was all I thought of ... seeing my family and friends
They say love knows no distance but the lonely never ends
And all along the dreams that possessed my heart never were to plain
And here I stand a soldier in the rain

I remember years ago ? I had so many plans
And now I watch the river flow ? time has brought me here
With empty hands

I remember years ago ? I had so many plans
And now I watch the river flow ? time has brought me here
With empty hands

The morning clouds are gathering around and the streets are full of
reflections
A traffic light and the moon still bright ? people going in different
directions
I've thought about why I'm here it's just too hard to explain
And here I stand a soldier in the rain
