Yes.  Yes, I know
 Yes, I know that when you hear this
 You'll feel strange,  I know
Still  out of sight
 But I've got this mouth
 That's full of dynamite,  tonight. Tonight.
Lover,  you're a soldier
 You're a long,  long way from home
 A long  way from your mother
 And you do it  on your own
I  don't belong to you
 And you don't  belong to me
I  don't think we need to
 Cos it's just  so easy
 So I survive
 So I just try to get through
 And stay alive
 You do the same
 Do the same
 I see you running
 Through the rain
 Lover, you're a soldier
 You're a long, long way from home
 A long way from your mother
 And you do it on your own
 I don't belong to you
 And you don't belong to me
 I don't think we need to
 Cos it's just so easy
 I got lucky
 When you said sorry
 And I couldn't stop now
 If I knew how
 And if it's true what they say
 About love and hard work
 Well, alright
 Cos maybe people in love
 Are all on the same side when they fight
 And everyone's raging and railing
 And screaming for war
 But you haven't got anything
 That I would fight you for
 To fight you
 Lover, you're a soldier
 You're a long, long way from home
 A long way from your mother
 And you do it on your own
 I don't belong to you
 And you don't belong to me
 But I don't think we need to
 Cos it's just easy
 Lover, you're a soldier
 You're a long, long way from home
 A long way from your mother
 And you do it on your own
 We can take our chances
 Cos we knew it going in
 There'd be lots of dancing
 But we'd never, ever play to win
