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

R: 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

R: And they knew they'd die...

Oh mothers wipe your tears

your sons will rest a million years

found their peace at last

as foe turned to friend

and forgive

R: And they knew they would die...
