Shadows lengthening
Ninety-five steps I'm taking
With every step I'm longing
For the luck to keep on living
The drum calls me back again
To my senses, filled with shame
Oh, that this night
Would never end
And on No Man's Land
The sun would not rise again
There was laughing, and
I could not laugh
There was singing, and
I could not sing
The big guns called me back again
The big guns called me back again
The big guns called me back again
I hear voices sing
I hear the guns begin
Far off, and far away
I hear the guns again
I hear the guns again
I hear the guns again
