Leaves from the Vine (2016 Version)

Leaves from the vine
Falling so slow
Like fragile tiny shells
Drifting in the foam

Little soldier boy
Come marching home
Brave soldier boy
Come marching home

These leaves did fall
From branches overgrown
Drifting slowly down
Resting all alone

Little soldier boy
Taken from a home
Forced to fight a war
That is not his own

Leaves from the vine
Falling so slow
Like fragile tiny shells
Drifting in the foam

Little soldier boy
Come marching home
Brave soldier boy
Come marching, come marching home

Leaves fell that night
When everything was silent
No one dared to make a noise
They just stood there quiet

Little soldier boy
Found his way back home
His mother wrapped her arms
Around his corpse

Leaves from the vine
Falling so slow
Like fragile tiny shells
Drifting in the foam

Little soldier boy
Come marching home
Brave soldier boy
Come marching, come marching-
Come marching, come marching-

Leaves from the vine
Falling so slow
Like fragile tiny shells
Drifting in the foam

Little soldier boy
Come marching home
Brave soldier boy
Come marching, come marching-
Come marching, come marching home
