I could never be a soldier
I only see the daylight.
I could never be a soldier
I only see the daylight.

chorus:
Change not when I'm told
Real love can't be sold
Wait till peace unfolds.
You'll see the light
Won't live in fear of the night.
You'll see the light
Won't live in fear of the night.

You don't seem to see the daylight
My friends are all around me.
No you don't seem to see the daylight
Could show you how to live some.

chorus:
I could never be a soldier
I could never face the enemy.
I could never be a soldier
He looks just like you or me.

I could never be a soldier
My friends are all around me.
I am worried for your safety
Need fear to make you angry.

chorus:
I could never be a soldier
I could never face the enemy.
I could never be a soldier
He looks just like you or me.

I could never be a soldier
I could never face the enemy.
I could never be a soldier
Give me freedom and liberty.
