A Light on the battlefield.
A light on the battlefield,
A hope quickly embraced,
Men playing football,
With those they would have killed.
The moon high in the sky,
Men's spirits soar,
Making the most of the night,
Knowing that tomorrow they may die.
Buried fight,
Foe into friend,
For the special little time,
Everything was right,
And though the men fought,
With bitter renew,
In their hearts they carried,
The hope of a few,
In the light of the battlefield.
