Never To Return lyrics

A last cup of wine A final embrace In the shades of parnon Yet it's not daybreak In tearless silence They watch us go The pain of their hearts Only the gods know Mothers and sisters, Daughter and wives How many times Have you stood here? Watching those you love Marching out to war Departing to their deaths, Never to return Nothing a good in life Comes without a price And we have learned To breathe the air of liberty Freedom we have chosen And now we'll fight for it What our fathers did, We can do no less These were the last Words of farewell Come back with your shield Or come back on it
