	Story Behind the Song This is an anti-war song I wrote way back when there was still war in Bosnia. I finally found the time to record it decently. But beware! It has me on vocals...and I'm not really a singer ;-) As usual I composed, arranged & recorded everything of this song, guitars, bass, keys, drums...and this time even vocals. The drums and bass takes were done about 2 years ago, in 2000. The rest was done in just about 2 days a couple of weeks ago in July 2002. Took me quite a while to record this baby, ey? Lyrics Farewell to Arms Verse 1 Didn't you hear the troops marching in the dark, Couldn't you see the guns they carried through the night, Plagued by blood desire, stirred up by their hate, For the mountain across the valley there was a raging fight. Chorus Still there'll be another day, When a farewell to arms enemies will say, The hope for another time, Where peace is no dream. Verse 2 Time has passed, with it many more guns, The fields were green, birds flying in the sky, The fire's raging glow has completely burnt their minds, And all that remains is people left to cry. Verse 3 When will it end, when will it be never again, The reasons, I do not understand, Seek the place where freedom lives, A place where people go hand in hand.
