Greg "Grey" Perkins - Farewell to Arms Lyrics

Tonight I see the stars not just the war-torn skies
And it comes as really no surprise that we must say a farewell to arms
A destiny we could never forsake
This flight from war will give our love freedom

And I won't change my mind
And you don't seem to mind
If I should take you away to a much brighter day
For now we will say our farewell to arms

Across the lake is the shore of a new day
In the silence, frozen air chills our faces
This boat takes us farther from the storm behind
Catching your eyes I knew I could feel it
A sting of life as two hearts entwined
The storm behind us no longer in our mind

And this will be our side of paradise
And you see the sun also rises on you and I
Tender is the night that we spend together love
Only shows the bells are tolling for you and I

In a warmer bed than I had yesterday
Your presence feels new as I remember a time in the sun of a sidewalk cafe
The war does as always still rage but I won't be fighting in my old place
Now between us there is nothing to keep us so estranged
