Danse Macabre - Thick As Thieves Lyrics
We promised to make a difference,you and IBoth still young, feeling smartNow in the light of this shaded lampI can almost see your smileDreamt of travelling land and seaAnd thus we did, my friend,you and meThick as thieves we wereThick as thieves we wereOh, and time was at our sideWell, at least so we believedOne day our nations prepared for a fightAnd you and I had to join opposite sidesNever we shall behold the green fieldsOr hear the birds sing in MayOur youth, our old day sacrificedAnd with our lives we did payDreamt of travelling land and seaAnd thus we did, my friend,you and meThick as thieves we wereThick as thieves we wereDreams shattered in filthy trenchesOur lungs filled with musterd gasBeneath the grey skies,in the fields of FlandersDreams shattered in filthy trenchesOur lungs filled with musterd gasA torn cross bearing your namein the grassOh, and time was at our sideWell at least so we believedOne day our nations prepaired for a fightOh, and time was at our sideWell at least so we believedAnd you and I had to join opposite sidesThick as thieves we were
