Close your eyes, I know what you see

Stumbling lost, the last choice of all that you meet

You're exhausted, listening for a voice that can't speak
(Ma nico, mio caro)

Tu sei il mio soldatino (you're my little soldier)

Seams undone by the love you thought you could own

But he's just one of many that you might call home
F G
And maybe someday, the bitter will fade from your bones

Eri il mio soldatino (you were my little soldier)

Ma anche per te, c'è una luce
(But even for you, there is a light)

Che ad un'altra vita ti conduce (that leads you to another life)
