Call To Arms Lyrics

This is a call to arms, hold your darling tight
And donÂ't let her go with the fork in the road
This is a call to arms, this is a call to armsÂ...

Let us not be defeated, even though we canÂ't win
‘Cause I see thereÂ's a crack in the walls of the mess that weÂ're in
And let us not be divided, I cannot make it alone
But IÂ've got a heart full of somebody calling me home
And she says:

This is a call to arms, hold your darling tight
And donÂ't let her go with the fork in the road
This is a call to arms, this is a call to armsÂ...

IÂ've never been one for fighting,
Yeah, but IÂ'm not about to lay down
‘Cause I still have my face (faith?) in the dust of this dirty old town
And I wouldnÂ't have it all easy, so come on, let the hard times begin
And letÂ's kick through the crack of the walls of the mess that weÂ're in
And I say:

This is a call to arms, hold your darling tight
And donÂ't let her go with the fork in the road This is a call to arms, this is a call to armsÂ...

Do you remember old Danny?
ItÂ's been so long since he died
Well, he was just a man who loved one woman for all of his life
And under hospital blankets, family stood round his bed,
He was too weak to talk, but he lifted his eyes and they said:

“Darling, be strong; even though IÂ'll be gone
Still I want you to know your love has meant everything,
Now pick up your voice and sing ‘cause:

This is a call to arms, hold your darling tight
And donÂ't let her go with the fork in the road
This is a call to arms, this is a call to armsÂ...”

Well this is a call to arms, hold your darling tight
And donÂ't let her go with the fork in the road
Well this is a call to arms, yeah now this is a call to arms
This is a call to arms, this is a call to armsÂ...
