Tom Paxton - When Morning Breaks lyrics

When morning breaks, I'll be gone When morning breaks, I'll be gone And where I go, I do not know When morning breaks, I'll be gone The Captain read off my name The Captain read off my name The regiment is marching to war The Captain read off my name The drums are rolling for war The drums are rolling for war The lines are forming, to wait for the morning To wait for the cruel cannon's roar I'll breathe your name through the fire I'll breathe your name through the fire I'll breathe your name to bring me home again I'll breathe your name through the fire The drums are rolling for war The drums are rolling for war The lines are forming, to wait for the morning To wait for the cruel cannon's roar When morning breaks I'll be gone
