As it is, well, I don't need these boots anymore
And I've no further duties to them
There's no more work for me
Now it's just you and me
You're coming home, back to the fold
No need to go anymore and I will wait for you
Well we feathered our nest and we raised us some kids
They grew up so fast, but heaven forbid they'll be so poor
Or that they will know war
Cos' you're coming home, back to the fold
No need to go anymore
You're coming home, (waiting for me) back to the fold
(Meat and two veg and a nice cup of tea)
No need to go anymore and I will wait for you
There came a lull and they gave us repreive
I packed up my kit and got two weeks leave
(Leave the washing on the line to dry)
Arrived at the station, walked up Junction Lane
You saw me and down came the rain
Your bags dropped by your feet - and then you ran to me
Cos' you're coming home, (Back from the war)
Back to the fold (When I see you I know what it's for)
No need to go anymore
You're coming home, (waiting for me) back to the fold
(Bacon and eggs and a nice cup of tea)
No need to go anymore and I will wait for you
As it is, well I don't need these boots anymore
And I've no further duties to them
There's no more war for me - Now it's just you and me
You're coming home - back to the fold
No need to go anymore
You're coming home
As it is, well I don't need these boots anymore
Back to the fold
And I've no further duties to them
There's no more war for us - 'Cos I'm coming home
No need to go anymore
You're coming home
And these are the days that make us who we are
Back to the fold
And we'll fight for what we believe
There's no more war for us 'Cos I'm coming home
No need to go anymore
And I will wait for . . . You
