lirik lagu norman castle - standing on the beach
[verse]
my name is unimportant; just an ordinary lad
my dad fought in the trenches
twas not my fate, for which i’m glad
received my invitation, in nineteen forty~three
and joined with mr churchill
to fight the bosche and serve my king and queen
[chorus]
now i’m standing on the beach; sh~lls beneath my feet
england’s cliffs protect my back; i’m waiting for the next attack
the enemy to meet
[verse]
they took us down to aldershot, soldier~boys to make
they marched us ‘til our feet bled
they fed us horse; and called it steak
they taught us how to shoot straight, to fight and never yield
we bayonеtted scarecrows
twas not my fate, to do so in thе field
[chorus]
now i’m standing on the beach; sh~lls beneath my feet
england’s cliffs protect my back; i’m waiting for the next attack
the enemy to meet
[verse]
was on the beach at juno; the closest place to h~ll
young davie took one in the head
twas not my fate, though many fell
we stormed across the k!lling field, and caught the wehrmacht cold
marched onward toward paris
my longest day, remembered now i’m old
[chorus]
i was standing on the beach; sh~lls above my head
bullets whistled left and right; i never felt their fatal bite
give thanks that i’m not dead
[bridge]
and who’s left to testify when old soldiers march away
the page of history fades to dust; the memories of yesterday
[verse]
he said his name was unimportant; just an ordinary lad
i took the time to have a chat
upon a whim, for which i’m glad
an understated hero; from a darker, braver day
he only did his duty
i shook his hand and humbled went my way
i shook his hand and humbled went my way
