Lyrics:

I could never be a soldier
I only see the daylight
I could never be a soldier
I only see the daylight

Change not when I'm told
Real love can't be sold
Wait till peace unfolds
You'll see the light
Won't live in the fear of the night
You'll see the light
Won't live in the fear of the night

You don't seem to see the daylight
My friends are all around me
No you don't seem to see the daylight
Could show you how to live some

Change not when I'm told
Real love can't be sold
Wait till peace unfolds
You'll see the light
Won't live in the fear of the night
You'll see the light
Won't live in the fear of the night

I could never be a soldier
I could never face the enemy
I could never be a soldier
He looks just like you or me

I could never be a soldier
My friends are all around me
I am worried for your safety
Need fear to make you angry

Change not when I'm told
Real love can't be sold
Wait till peace unfolds
You'll see the light
Won't live in the fear of the night
You'll see the light
Won't live in the fear of the night

I could never be a soldier
I could never face the enemy
I could never be a soldier
He looks just like you or me

I could never be a soldier
I could never face the enemy
I could never be a soldier
Give me freedom and liberty
