Soldier lyrics

I met him down by the bay He said life is a stranger That wont go away He took me by surprise And I felt for the first time What its like to be alive I'm a soldier But I don't know how to fight I'm your best friend But I'm scared to see you tonight I'm the darkness But I want to be the light Oh how I want to be Oh how I want to be I met him down by the sea Said I look like someone he knew I said I don't know anyone So how could I possibly know you He touched my hand Finally I understand What it means to be here with you I'm a soldier But I don't know how to fight I'm your best friend But I'm scared to see you tonight I'm the darkness But I want to be the light Oh how I want to be Oh how I want to be
