Cliffs of Gallipoli

Hear them whisper voices from the other side hear them calling from friends and foes resting side by side They will never leave our hearts or fade away live forever they were far too young to die such a waste how many wasted lives how many dreams did fade away broken promises they won't be coming home Oh mothers wipe your tears your sons will rest a million years found their peace at last as foe turned to friend and forgive And they knew they'd die Gallipoli Left the letters in the sand Such waste of life Gallipoli Dreams of freedom turned to dust Hell is waiting where the ocean meets the sand Cliffs of burden where the soldiers crushed into a certain death At the shoreline Blood of heroes stains the land light a candle For each of them who fought and died in vain There is no enemy There is no victory Only boys who lost their lives in the sand Young men were sacrificed a Their names are carved in stone in candle light and forever we will ? remember your burden And they knew they'd die Gallipoli Left the letters in the sand Such waste of life Gallipoli Dreams of freedom turned to dust Oh mothers wipe your tears your sons will rest a million years found their peace at last as foe turned to friend and forgive And they knew they would die Gallipoli Left the letters in the sand Such waste of life Gallipoli Dreams of freedom turned to dust
