Katherine Jenkins - Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence (Somewhere Far Away) Lyrics

There's a hero's tale of a ship that sails Under distant stars somewhere far away And she's bound for glory on a foreign shore But the hero's every boy who sailed off to war

Somewhere far away There's a soldier boy who dreams a dream of home Where a nightingale Sings a promise to the ones who sleep alone Spring is in the air With a scent of cherry blossom in the glen Whispering a prayer Saying, "Bring our heroes safely home again"

So the willows weep and the candles burn For there is no sleep for the ones who yearn As I tell your story with a thankful heart You are always in our thoughts, though we're worlds apart

Somewhere far away There's a soldier boy who dreams a dream of home Where a nightingale Sings a promise to the ones who sleep alone Spring is in the air With a scent of cherry blossom in the glen Whispering a prayer Saying, "Bring our heroes safely home again"

Somewhere far away There's a soldier boy who dreams a dream of home Where a nightingale Sings a promise to the ones who sleep alone And spring is in the air With a scent of cherry blossom in the glen Whispering a prayer Saying, "Bring our heroes safely home again"

Home again Home again
