Clash The Rebel Waltz Lyrics

Rebel Waltz Lyrics

I slept as I dreamed of a time long ago 
I saw an army of rebels dancing on
air 
I dreamed as I slept, I could see the campfires 
A song of the
battle, that was born in the flames 
And the rebels were waltzing on air

I danced with a girl to the tune of a waltz 
That was written to be
danced on the battlefield 
I danced to the song of a voice of a girl
A
voice that called "Stand till we fall 
We stand till all the boys
fall" 
As we danced came the news 
That the war was not won 
Five
armies were coming 
With carriage and gun 
Throught the heart of the camp

Swept the news from the front 
A cloud crossed the moon 
A child
cried for food 
We knew the war could not be won 
So we danced with the
rifle, to the rhythm of the gun
In a glade through the trees I saw my only
one 
Then the earth seemed to rise hell hot as the sun 
The soldiers were
dying, there was a tune to the sighing 
The song was an old rebel one 
As
the smoke of our hopes rose high from the field 
My eyes played tricks
through the moon and the trees 
I slept as I dreamed I saw the army rise

A voice began to call, "Stand till you fall" 
The tune was an
old rebel one
