Prisoner Of War Lyrics - David Wilcox

I respect what you can do 

But I'd say the same about a gun 

Depends which side of you they see 

Some feel safe and some will run 

There's so much fight you keep in store 

Though in all of life, you've won your wars 

And still you let yourself forget 

As if it's thirty years before 

Prisoner of war, prisoner of war 

Though you're not held on foreign soil anymore 

Bring 'em home, Jack, bring 'em home, Jack 

Bring home both the mighty soldier and the boy 

Something you just can't believe 

The many strengths you could receive 

If you could just call down your guard 

Just let those forces leave 

Prisoner of war, prisoner of war 

Though you're not held on foreign soil anymore 

Bring 'em home, Jack, bring 'em home, Jack 

Bring home both the mighty soldier and the boy 

And you're so strong, and that's your crutch 

To keep alone and out of touch 

To try to keep your heart from line of fire 

So it's still trapped inside that war 

Like there's a soldier at the door 

It's time you told that soldier to retire 

And bring 'em home 

Prisoner of war, prisoner of war 

Though you're not held on foreign soil anymore 

Bring 'em home, Jack, bring 'em home, Jack 

Bring home both the mighty soldier and the boy
