one last battle - leslie fish lyrics

Loading...

it’s been two years since i saw you, since i stood upon the ground
in the shadow of a shuttle that too soon for sp-ce was bound
and now i am a warrior, a pilot for the fleet
and they’ve told me i cannot go home, till the enemy’s defeat

and now i’m on the front lines in this d-mned patrol corvette
shot fifteen of the alien ships and they haven’t got us yet
and i curse the foe, and i curse this ship, and i curse each single
fight
for i’m haunted by the memory of you and a moonlit summer night

i remember how we sat there, looking down upon the bay
and you told me that you’d wait for me if it took a thousand days
but i’ve been gone for a long time, and i’ve been so far away
and each time i go into battle, dear, for both of us i pray

the foe retreats before us now, his conquests he has lost
we’ve beaten him back, we’ve smashed his ships, but lord, at what a cost!
ten thousand men lie graveless in the emptiness of sp-ce
and they died so far from heart and home and their woman’s fond
embrace

the alien fleet’s before us now, the final battle draws nigh
and i cannot know before it’s done if i’ll live or i shall die
but if this one last battle, i should manage to survive
i’ll come home to you, for the war’ll be through, and i’ll take you for my bride
