Uriah Heep - Fires of Hell lyrics
(THE FUTILITY OF WAR)
 Oh, I was born your only son
 And I will think of you
 Before this day is done
 The fires of hell surround me now
 So I must fight for freedom
 Against their raging guns
 In all my life I never said
 How much I loved you
 In all this time
 I never really said I cared
 This war is wrong and so
 I write these words
 Before I give my life to the Somme
 In all my life I never said
 How much I loved you
 In all this timeUriah Heep - Fires of Hell - http://motolyrics.com/uriah-heep/fires-of-hell-lyrics.html
 I never really knew you
 The fires of hell surround me, oh
 The guns of hell will
 Take my breath away
 From my life this day
 The fires of hell surround me, oh
 The words I say
 Must never disappear
 Keep them locked inside your heart
 I can hear the piper's song
 And it will play for me
 Before this day is done
 So I will hold my head up high
 If I must give my life
 To stop their raging guns
 Oh, I was born your only son
 And I thank god for that and
 That that will be done
