In a land where shadows fall, and the sun is slow to rise
Where the rivers carry stories of the tears in lovers' eyes
He held her close beneath the sky, as the world was torn apart
Whispering promises of love while war was in their hearts
Love in the time of war, a fragile, fleeting dream
When the world is painted red, and nothing's as it seems
But in the darkest night, when hope is all but gone
Love's the light that guides us, through the battle, we'll hold on
He marched away with heavy steps, a soldier's call to fight
But in his heart, he carried her, through every endless night
She waited by the window, with a prayer upon her lips
That he'd return to her embrace, from the cold and icy grips
Love in the time of war, a fragile, fleeting dream
When the world is painted red, and nothing's as it seems
But in the darkest night, when hope is all but gone
Love's the light that guides us, through the battle, we'll hold on
And though the cannons roar, and the sky is filled with fire
Their love will be the armor, the shield they'll never tire
For even in the ruins, where peace is hard to find
Their hearts will beat together, through the battles of the mind
The war it ended, silence fell, but scars were left behind
They found each other, broken, but their love was intertwined
And as they walked through fields of green, where once the bullets flew
They knew that love had conquered all, in the war they had been through
Love in the time of war, a fragile, fleeting dream
When the world is painted red, and nothing's as it seems
But in the darkest night, when hope is all but gone
Love's the light that guides us, through the battle, we'll hold on
So hold on to the love you find, when the world is torn in two
For love will be the compass, that will always see you through
