Hey Mother
Will I be bold in battle?
Will my death rattle echo round the world?
Hey Mother
Do you hear me calling?
Hey Mother
Remember me when I am gone
Every winter sing this song
Every midsummer sing my name
One day I'll be back again
Hey Mother
Can you hear me calling?
Hey Mother
You promised you would not forget
And now all the plays are set
Off to war we all must go
While winter skies are set with snow
A single kiss before I go
A kiss beneath the mistletoe
Hey Mother
Do you hear me calling?
Hey Mother
Can you hear me call your name?
Please don't think that you're to blame
When all the light has turned to dust
And all our dreams have been crushed
I will return
