Merry Christmas Mr.Lawrence(Somewhere Far Away) - Faryl Smith

There's a hero's tale of a ship that sails
Under distant stars somewhere far away
And she's bound for? glory on a foreign shore
But the hero's every boy who sailed off to war
Somewhere far away there's a soldier boy who dreams a dream of home
Where a nightingale sings a promise to the ones who sleep alone
Spring is in the air with scent of cherry blossom in the glen
Whispering a prayer saying bring our heroes safely home again
So the willows weep and the candles burn
For there is no sleep for the ones who yearn
As I tell your story with a thankful heart
You are always in our thoughts though we're worlds apart
Somewhere far away there's a soldier boy who dreams a dream of home
Where a nightingale sings a promise to the ones who sleep alone
Spring is in the air with scent of cherry blossom in the glen
Whispering a prayer saying bring our heroes safely home again
Where are you
Somwhere far away
We miss you more with each new day
Somewhere far away there's a soldier boy who dreams a dream of home
Where a nightingale sings a promise to the ones who sleep alone
Spring is in the air with scent of cherry blossom in the glen
Whispering a prayer saying bring our heroes safely home again
