Old Soldier Lyrics

Listen Old Soldier Wherever you are The hills or the valleys Come near or come far They say youth is a treasure We waste when we're young So come down from that place Where your medals are hung You're forever returning And yearning to fight And you feel just like An Old Soldier tonight... Listen Old Soldier 'Cause time doesn't wait The moon's on your shoulder And the hour is late And something there inside Still calls out to you And you won't fade away Whatever you do You're forever beginning Barely winning the fight You feel just like An Old Soldier tonight... You're not getting no younger That much is true now But you still got that hunger Burning in you now So what do you do now? (What do you do now?) Listen Old Soldier To the sound in your ears Of too many battles Of too many years But there's only one thing You've learned in defeat: That losing is bitter And victory is sweet Yeah you're always unravelling Travelling light And you feel just like An Old Soldier tonight You feel just like An Old Soldier tonight (that's right) Just an Old Soldier...
