Lyrics:
"Water shapes its course according to the nature of the ground over which it flows; the soldier works out his
victory in relation to the foe whom he is facing. Therefore, just as water retains no constant shape, in
warfare there are no constant conditions"
Hear them whisper, voices from the other side
Hear them calling, former foes now friends are resting side by side
They will never leave our hearts or fade away
Live forever, they were far too young to die in such a way
How many wasted lives, how many dreams did fade away?
Broken promises, they won't be coming home
Oh mothers, wipe your tears
Your sons will rest a million years
Found their peace at last
As foe turned to friend and forgive
And they knew they'd die
Gallipoli
Left their letters in the sand
Such waste of life
Gallipoli
Dreams of freedom turn to dust
Hell is waiting where the ocean meets the sand
Cliffs of burden, where the soldiers rushed into a certain death
At the shoreline, blood of heroes stains the sand
Light a candle, one for each of them who fought and died in vain
There is no enemy, there is no victory
Only boys who lost their lives in the sand
Young men were sacrificed
Their names are carved in stone and kept alive
And forever we will honour the memory of them
And they knew they'd die
Gallipoli
Left their letters in the sand
Such waste of life
Gallipoli
Dreams of freedom turn to dust
How many wasted lives, how many dreams did fade
away?
Broken promises, they won't be coming home
Oh mothers, wipe your tears
Your sons will rest a million years
Found their peace at last
As foe turned to friend and forgive
And they knew they'd die
Gallipoli
Left their letters in the sand
Such waste of life
Gallipoli
Dreams of freedom turn to dust
"There are roads which must not be followed, armies which must not be attacked, towns which must not be besieged, positions which must not be contested"
