Johnny Cash - Like A Soldier Lyrics
With the twilight colors fallingAnd the evening laying shadowsHidden memories come stealing from my mindAs I feel my own heart beating outThe simple joy of livingI wonder how I ever was that kindBut the wild road I was ramblingWas always out there callingAnd they said a hundred times I should have diedBut now my present miracleIs that you're here beside me So,I believe they were roads that I was meant to rideLike a soldier getting over the warLike a young man getting over his crazy daysLike a bandit getting over his lawless waysEvery day is better than beforeI'm like a soldier getting over the warThere were nights I don't rememberAnd there's pain that I've forgottenOther things I choose not to recallThere are faces that come to meIn my darkest secret memoryFaces that I wish would not come back at allIn my dreams parade of loversFrom the other times and placesThere's not one that matters now, no matter whoI'm just thankful for the journeyAnd that I've survived the battlesAnd that my spoils of victory are you
