I walked away from you once before
I still see you standing at the door
Trying to find the strength to say goodbye to you
Maybe we were wrong, gotta find what’s right for me
Oh yes, we were brave to go our separate ways
But these days I wonder whose gun I'm under
I am nobody’s soldier
Marching to the rhythm of a lonely heart
I am nobody’s soldier
When my battle is over I’ll be nobody’s soldier
Life itself is war enough
I can’t win for you, you can’t lose for me
(I can’t win for you, you can’t lose for me)
Broken hearts and dreams we left along the way
Will only give us strength to fight another day
Maybe I just live too hard and love too much
But fighting, win or lose
I’ll be nobody’s soldier
Marching to the rhythm of a lonely heart
(A lonely heart)
I am nobody’s soldier
When my battle is over I’ll be nobody’s soldier
Where do we begin to learn to live again?
Find a place for me and one day we’ll be free
When lovers part they leave their broken dreams behind
And their wounded heart to heal
Still I am nobody’s soldier
(Nobody’s soldier)
Marching to the rhythm of a lonely heart
(A lonely heart)
I am nobody’s soldier
(Nobody’s soldier)
When my battle is over I’ll be nobody’s soldier
No, no, no, no, nobody’s soldier
(Nobody’s soldier)
Marching to the rhythm of a lonely heart
I’ve got a lonely heart
Nobody’s soldier
(Nobody’s soldier)
Nobody’s soldier
Nobody’s soldier
A lonely heart
Nobody’s soldier
I still see you standing at the door
Trying to find the strength to say goodbye to you
Maybe we were wrong, gotta find what’s right for me
Oh yes, we were brave to go our separate ways
But these days I wonder whose gun I'm under
I am nobody’s soldier
Marching to the rhythm of a lonely heart
I am nobody’s soldier
When my battle is over I’ll be nobody’s soldier
Life itself is war enough
I can’t win for you, you can’t lose for me
(I can’t win for you, you can’t lose for me)
Broken hearts and dreams we left along the way
Will only give us strength to fight another day
Maybe I just live too hard and love too much
But fighting, win or lose
I’ll be nobody’s soldier
Marching to the rhythm of a lonely heart
(A lonely heart)
I am nobody’s soldier
When my battle is over I’ll be nobody’s soldier
Where do we begin to learn to live again?
Find a place for me and one day we’ll be free
When lovers part they leave their broken dreams behind
And their wounded heart to heal
Still I am nobody’s soldier
(Nobody’s soldier)
Marching to the rhythm of a lonely heart
(A lonely heart)
I am nobody’s soldier
(Nobody’s soldier)
When my battle is over I’ll be nobody’s soldier
No, no, no, no, nobody’s soldier
(Nobody’s soldier)
Marching to the rhythm of a lonely heart
I’ve got a lonely heart
Nobody’s soldier
(Nobody’s soldier)
Nobody’s soldier
Nobody’s soldier
A lonely heart
Nobody’s soldier
