Soldier, Soldier, where are you? I can't see through all the gun smoke. Solider, Solider why cant you, Just come straight home to your folks? This world needs no more fighting. This world needs no more pain. We all need a little enlightening. We all need to dance in the rain. Soldier, Soldier, please be careful. Take care of you and your crew. Soldier, Soldier, my big general, Please know that we love you.

Never ever give up! Don&#039;t listen to what people say they will just try to shove you in the dirt. Listen to your heart.
