VERSE 2: (as before)
Out in the battle, gunfire anew
Where does allegiance lie?
Sometimes when all of your hopes, all of your dreams
Are too much to value in one moment
And all of us anxious, but why hurry love?
History's here and now, oh...
And why are you waiting? Waiting for what?
The history of some love
