Ron D Bowes - Sailing Home Lyrics

The Battle's done
The war is won
We'll send our dead to the deep
Beneath the stars
We'll tend our scars
And settle down to sleep

Raise your drinks up to the sky
We'll wave this bitter war goodbye
We're on our way, we're sailing home!
With a cheer our ordeal ends
We'll see our family and friends
We're on our way, we're sailing home!

It's been a while
And many a mile
We've travelled to the foe
We've battled long
And righted wrongs
Or so the story goes

Raise your drinks up to the sky
We'll wave this bitter war goodbye
We're on our way, we're sailing home!
With a cheer our ordeal ends
We'll see our family and friends
We're on our way, we're sailing home!

I left behind my one true love
I gave her my soul and heart
And when I see her
I'll kiss her lips
And never again will we part

Raise your drinks up to the sky
We'll wave this bitter war goodbye
We're on our way, we're sailing home!
With a cheer our ordeal ends
We'll see our family and friends
We're on our way, we're sailing home!
