Mountains of my home, eternal snow
Valleys of green, with lakes down low
But here I am at war so many miles away,
Far in the east where battle took it's way

No hope is near
It's death we fear
A frozen tear
It's hard to bear

Oh through the night I see the bridges burning behind
Us No relief for our tortured souls to find
The mists of life, no hope for tomorrow,
The cold winds of death deepen our sorrow

No hope is near
It's death we fear
A frozen tear
But then we hear

Our life is like the journey of a wanderer through the night,
But unexpectedly night and darkness leave out of sight
Courage, courage brothers the sun will rise again,
Stand tall for this night and you'll find release from pain

These words fade away
In the light of day,
As the fire burns
And the battle turns

We're running side by side,
There's no place to hide
As the grenades crack,
There's no turning back

All hope and luck is gone
My friends fall one by one
There's no way to retreat,
In the battles heat

Somehow I get ashore,
I can't take no more
I reach the other side,
I don't know how I survived

I survived

Mountains of my home, eternal snow
Valleys of green, with lakes down low
Back now I am, from a war so many miles away
Far in the east where still many brave souls lie

No hope is near
It's death we fear
A frozen tear
But then we hear

Our life is like the journey of a wanderer through the night,
But unexpectedly night and darkness leave out of sight
Courage, courage brothers the sun will rise again,
Stand tall for this night and you'll find release from pain
