Текст песни: Twenty-One Guns + перевод

Jamie’s going off to war tomorrow

Trading in his shovel for a big old gun

Time to stand up time to be a man

Putting the trigger in his right hand

But she needs you now she can’t do it herself

Forced to put her dreams and her future on the shelf

Think of your wife your child on the way

She don’t wanna be a widow at his young age

We hear the sounds of bombs dropping

It’s ringing in our ears and we can feel it when you’re falling down

Twenty-one guns fired in the middle of the night

Twenty-one guns were blazing in the thick of the fight

Twenty-one guns one shot for every year of his life

Searching for the courage to pull you through

But your back’s up against the sharp edge of the knife

We’re hanging ribbons of gold on the trees in the yard

And your thoughts are with us no matter how far you are

We’re always here with you

And it kills us inside knowing there’s nothing we can do

Bad news strikes the girls left alone

Left to raise her child and fend for her own

Another family that’s torn by war

Another soldier’s face down in the dirt

We hear the sounds of bombs dropping

It’s ringing in our ears and we can feel it when you’re falling down

Twenty-one guns fired in the middle of the night

Twenty-one guns were blazing in the thick of the fight

Twenty-one guns one shot for every year of his life

Searching for the courage to pull you through

But your back’s up against the sharp edge of the knife
