Soldier of Love

Sade Soldier of Love Lyrics
1.The Moon And The Sky

I was the one
I who could, pull in all the star above
Lay them on your feet, and I gave you my love
You are the one who got me started
You could have let me love anyone but I only wanted you
So why did he make me cry
Why didn't you come get me one last time
You'll always know
The reason why
We could have had the moon and the sky
You'll always know
The reason why this love,
reason why this love
Ain't gon' let you go
You lay me down
Left me for lions
A long long time ago
You left me there dying
But you'll never let me go
You'll always know
The reason why
We could have had the moon and the sky
You'll always know
The reason why this love,
reason why this love
Ain't gon' let you go
You'll always know the reason.. Why
The song you heard,
will stay on your mind
It ain't gon' let you go.. No..
Cos you were the moon
and I the endless sky
You'll always know
The reason why
We could have had the moon and the sky
You'll always know
The reason why this love,
reason why this love
Ain't gon' let you go...
Ain't gon' let you go...
You have the keys to car...
You have every star...
Everyone of them twinkling...
Baby what were you thinkin'...
We had the moon and the sky above
And I gave you my love


2.Soldier Of Love

I've lost the use of my heart
But I'm still alive
Still looking for the life
The endless pool on the other side
It's a wild wild west
I'm doing my best

I'm at the borderline of my faith,
I'm at the hinterland of my devotion
In the frontline of this battle of mine
But I'm still alive

I'm a soldier of love.
Every day and night
I'm soldier of love
All the days of my life

I've been torn up inside (oh!)
I've been left behind (oh!)
So I ride
I have the will to survive

In the wild wild west,
Trying my hardest
Doing my best
To stay alive

I am love's soldier!
I wait for the sound

I know that love will come (that love will come)
Turn it all around

I'm a soldier of love (soldier of love)
Every day and night

All the days of my life
I'm a soldier of love (soldier of love)

I am lost
But I don't doubt (oh!)
So I ride
I have the will to survive
In the wild wild west,
Trying my hardest
Doing my best
To stay alive

I am love's soldier!
I wait for the sound

I know that love will come
I know that love will come
Turn it all around

I'm a soldier of love
I'm a soldier

Still waiting for love to come
Turn it all around
(4x)

I'm a soldier of love
I'm a soldier

Still waiting for love to come
Turn it all around
(3x)

Still waiting for love to come


3.Morning Bird

How could you
you are the river
out of this life
how could you
you are the morning bird
who sang me into life
everyday fly away
you are the blood of me
the harvest of my dreams
there's no way i can find peace
and the silence wont cease

won't let me be
if you set me free
i will not run
i will not run
i will not run


4.Babyfather

We were waiting for the bus
No-one much around but us
Then I see this young boy cut a look at me
I'm stunned
In a daze
He had the whole street set ablaze
It's only love they say
Makes you feel this way
She liked his eyes she wanted more
The baby gonna have your smile for sure
He saw a lovely girl
Smelling sweet and soapy like fresh air
She saw him looking acted like she didnt care
That's how we knew
And so love grew a flower
A flower that is you
Your daddy knows youre a flame (x4)
Even to the angels it may sound like a lie
For you child
He was the troops and extra backup standing by
For you child
For you he's the best he can be
For you child
For you hes the best he can be
Oh child dont you know
Your daddy love come with a lifetime guarantee
Your daddy knows youre a flame (x2)
Yeah daddy love you child
Your daddy knows youre a flame (x2)
Daddy love you yeah
It' only you he'll say
Made the young boy hungry for the man he is today
It's only love, love, love, love
Can make you feel this way
Your daddy knows you're a flame
Yeah daddy love you child
Your daddy knows youre a flame (x2)
Daddy love you yeah
Your daddy knows youre a flame (x2)
Yeah daddy love you child
Your daddy knows youre a flame (x2)
Daddy love you yeah
Your daddy knows youre a flame (x2)
Yeah daddy love you child
Your daddy knows youre a flame (x2)
Daddy love you yeah


5.Long Hard Road

There's a long hard road ahead
But a voice inside me said
You know there's something that you need to know
It's gonna be alright

Said there's something that you need to know
It's gonna be alright
And when in this life in this life
When I can only turn my chin
I know it's gonna be alright

When this big old town is closing in
And I have lost again
Here I could stay
But I'll keep moving on

Here I could stay but I'll keep moving on
Could be I won't be wrong

There's a long hard road ahead
But a voice inside me said
Said there's something that you need to know
It's gonna be alright
Said there's something that you need to know
It's gonna be alright


6.Be That Easy

You baby were like the sky
You held me up
To let me fly
That's just like you to tell me I've nothing to fear
But I am a broken house
I'm holding on a broken bough
Now it's easy for me to see
It couldn't be that easy
It had to be much harder
That's just like you to tell me I've nothing to fear
But I could have been falling free
Falling all these years
Now it's easy for me to see
Full of air
Sun on my face
Wind in my hair
Falling down
Flying as slow as I can
I'm not trying to reach the land
Just falling somewhere
It couldn't be that easy
It had to be much harder
Meanwhile boy I love you


7.Bring Me Home

The ground is full of broken stones
The last leaf has fallen
I have nowhere to turn now
Not east not west
North or south
And all that's ahead of me
And everything I know
I know nothing so
So bring me home

Put me on a plate with petals and a fire
And send me out to sea
Turn my angry sword against my heart
And let me free
The dawn holds the heaviness of the night
I've heard the restless sighs and lovers lies
The brook, the beach and seen the devil's eyes
So bring me home

I've cried for the lives I've lost
Like a child in need of love
I've been so close but far away from god
My tears flow like a child's in need of love
I've cried the tears
So let the tide take me
I won't fight
I've cried the tears

The small step I need to take is a mountain
Stretched out like a lazy dog
Send me to slaughter
Lay me on the railway line
I'm far away from god
My tears flow like a child's in need of love
I've cried the tears
So build the fire and light the flame
Bring me home


8.In Another Time

You'll be surprised girl,
Soon they will mean nothing to you
They will fall into their own
With them to
There's nothing
nothing that you have to do
In another time girl
Tears wont leave a trace
In another time girl
In another place
You were down girl,
There were those who put stones in your face
So tired of waiting
For something to change
They don't know what to do with
something so good
But you wouldn't hurt them,
you wouldn't hurt them if you could
One of these days they gonna fall into their world
And they will know exactly what they did to you
Darling I just want you to know
Your tears wont leave a trace,
In another time girl,
In another time girl
in another place

Darling I just want you to know
Your tears wont leave a trace,
In another time girl,
In another time girl
in another place


9.Skin

When I found out this love's undone
I was like a gun, sure as it was over
Felt like nothing good could come
Sure as it's gonna play and play
Like Michael back in the day
I'm gonna peel you away
Now as I begin to wash you off my skin
I'm gonna peel you away
'Cause you're not right within
I love you so
Sometimes love has to let go
So this time don't think it's a lie
I say goodbye
Now as I begin to wash you off my skin
I'm gonna peel you away
'Cause you're not right within
Now it's time to wash you off my skin
Now as I begin, it couldn't be right
'Cause you're not right within
I say goodbye


10.The Safest Place

Your love has found
The safest hiding place
Inside is a field
And trees and a lake
Around is a wall
No-one from hell could break
In there you'll shine
In there you will cry
My heart has been a lonely warrior
Who's been to war
So you can be sure
In my heart your love has found
The safest hiding place
Inside is a stream
Around is a wall
No-one from hell could break
In there will shine
The light of heaven's eye
In there you will cry
My heart's been a lonely warrior
Who's been to war
So you can be sure
Your love's in a sacred place
The safest hiding place
My heart has been a lonely warrior before
Who's been to war
So you can be sure
