The Navy Song Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Time.. rolling along with the waves
A thousand miles away
Holding you close in the rain
Seems just like yesterday

[Verse 2]
Lost.. hope in a faraway place
And in my hand remains
A black and white print of a face
I'll never see again

[Chorus]
I gave my life to save her
The ocean turned to red
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all

Cut down like lambs at slaughter
Good men were left for dead
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all

[Verse 3]
Love.. served until death do us part
I'm drifting in the dark
Wounded and wishing to fall
Into your faithful arms

[Chorus]
I gave my life to save her
The ocean turned to red
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all

Cut down like lambs at slaughter
Good men were left for dead
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all

[Bridge]
Beneath a sky of hate
Beyond a sea of pain
In heaven I will wait
Until we meet again

[Chorus] 2x
I gave my life to save her
The ocean turned to red
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all

Cut down like lambs at slaughter
Good men were left for dead
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all
In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all
