Quincy Jones
"Soldier in the Rain"

Young lonesome soldier, sleeping in the rain
Far from home
Half a child, half a hero
Tossed by the times, caught in the winds

Dream, lonesome soldier, weary of the rain
Dream of home
Someone's son, someone's lover
Dream that you're someday child
Who never knows the rain

Half a child, half a hero
Tossed by the times, caught in the winds

Someone's son, someone's lover
Dream that you're someday child
Who never knows the rain
