Silence

Oh, I remember the silence

On a cold winter day

After many months on the battlefield

And we were used to the violence

Then all the cannons went silent

And the snow fell

Voices sang to me from no man's land.

We are all, we are all, we are all, we are all friends.

And today we're all brothers, tonight we're all friends

A moment of peace in a war that never ends

Today we're all brothers, we drink and unite

Now christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground white

Hear carols from the trenches, we sing o holy night

Our guns laid to rest among snowflakes

A christmas in the trenches, a christmas on the front far from home.

Madness (madness)

Oh I remember the sadness (sadness)

We were hiding our tears (hiding our tears)

In a foreign land where we faced our fears (faced our fears)

We were soldiers (soldiers)

Carried the war on our shoulders (shoulders)

For our nations (nations)

Is that why we bury our friends? (bury our friends)

We were all, we were all, we were all, we were all friends

(We're friends)

And today we're all brothers, tonight we're all friends

A moment of peace in a war that never ends

Today we're all brothers, we drink and unite

Now christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground white

Hear carols from the trenches, we sing o holy night

Our guns laid to rest among snowflakes

A christmas in the trenches, a christmas on the front far from home.

We were all, we were all, we were all, we were all friends

(We're friends)

And today we're all brothers, tonight we're all friends

A moment of peace in a war that never ends

Today we're all brothers, we drink and unite

Now christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground white

A christmas on the frontline, we walk among our friends

We don't think about tomorrow, the battle will commence

When we celebrated christmas we thought about our friends

Those who never made it home when the battle had commenced.
