Steve Hackett Battlelines Lyrics

Now I stand with sinking pride
The time has come to turn the table
I've drawn the line ---
And I wont let one more dream go

And oh days of innocence
I surrendered long ago
Was the voice that speaks of mercy
The eyes that are not mine
A love thats never ending

I wanna go back to fight
The unison --- that I left behind
I still believe their holding ground
Behind the battlelines

And if it takes a million miles over land and sea
Gonna swim in the rivers of purity
I know they still run free
Behind the battlelines

One more mountain we must climb
I scaled so many in my time
And if the sun goes down on me
The light of truth wil help me see

Ohh days of innocence
I surrendered long ago Was the voice that speaks of mercy
The eyes that are not mine
The love thats never ending

I wanna go back to fight
The unison --- that I left behing
I still belive they're holding ground
Behind the battlelines

If it takes a million miles over land and see
Gonna swim in the rivers of purity
I know they still run free

Visions of eternity
Never take the dream from me
Here i am
Standing at the end of this ---

I wanna go back to fight
The unison --- that I left behind
I still believe they're holding ground
Behind the battlelines

If it takes a milion miles over land and sea
I'll swim in the rivers of purity
I know they still run free
Behind the battlelines.
