In the green inferno where shadows dance and weave
I'm lost in a nightmare with no reprieve
Every step a journey through the valley of despair
With memories of your smile a glimmer rare
I may never leave this hell the echoes of the past
Caught in the crossfire where the die is cast
But your love is my beacon my shelter from the storm
In this war's cruel embrace your warmth keeps me warm
We march through the trenches ghosts in a living dream
Hopes buried in the mud where silent shadows scream
Your letters in my pocket a fragile thread of light
Guiding me through darkness through endless night
I may never leave this hell the echoes of the past
Caught in the crossfire where the die is cast
But your love is my beacon my shelter from the storm
In this war's cruel embrace your warmth keeps me warm
In the thunder of the guns I hear your whispered name
A song of distant love in this deadly game
Every fallen brother every tear we shed
Reminds me of the promise the life that lies ahead
I may never leave this hell the echoes of the past
Caught in the crossfire where the die is cast
But your love is my beacon my shelter from the storm
In this war's cruel embrace your warmth keeps me warm
If the morning finds me silent beneath a foreign sky
Know that I fought bravely with your love held high
And if I don't return if fate should keep us apart
Remember my beloved you'll always own my heart
I may never leave this hell the echoes of the past
Caught in the crossfire where the die is cast
But your love is my beacon my shelter from the storm
In this war's cruel embrace your warmth keeps me warm
