"Soldier" lyrics - ANGUS & JULIA STONE

I met him down by the bay,
He said life is a stranger
That won't go away.

He took me by surprise,
And I felt for the first time,
What its like to be alive

I'm a soldier,
But I don't know how to fight.
I'm your best friend
But I'm scared to see you tonight.
I'm the darkness,
But I want to be the light,
Oh how I want to be,
Oh how I want to be.

I met him down by the sea,
Said I look like someone he knew.
I said I don't know anyone,
So how could I possibly know you.

He touched my hand,
Finally I understand
What it means to be here with you.

I'm a soldier,
But I don't know how to fight.
I'm your best friend
But I'm scared to see you tonight.
I'm the darkness,
But I want to be the light,
Oh how I want to be,
Oh how I want to be.
