Summer Soldier Songtext
von John Lees’ Barclay James Harvest

I feel sorry for the soldier who is shot and stoned in anger
I feel sorry for his wife and child at home
I feel sorry for the bomber who all life and limb dishonours
For the people that he′s maimed and left alone
The Lord God said love thy neighbour
Though in human life he trades, he's still a man I feel sorry for the children who with open mind are willing
To fight for ideals aged and past their time
I feel sorry for the children who will join the vicious circle
Of instinct fear bred from their parents′ minds
The Lord God said love thy neighbour
Break the circle, free the hater, call him a friend
