Little Pony Soldier

Leader:
He knew we all know
Where we are from
Although no one yet has said
The secret kept instead

JACK:
Little pony soldier

Leader:
A shot sooner or later

JACK:
Unpacking his hellos

Leader:
Raw hands and pounding heart

JACK:
What he might say

Leader:
Like policemen at home

JACK:
Doing no harm left unsaid

Doctor and leader:
Nothing takes time but you
Waiting for change

It's so far and my watching you
Amounts to a quarter of a mile
At a dime a time

Jack i:
Little pony soldier

Jack ii:
A shot sooner or later

I:
Buried there in front of me

II:
Save a life
Give all your blood

I:
Buried right here -

II:
Any next cloud elsewhere

I:
- His special clear death
Rung ringing yet

II:
She steals rocket fuel
You will too

I & II:
It's not up to you

I:
Getting out of here -

II:
Gentle little words

I:
- To protect -

II:
Gentle little mistakes

I:
- The secret source -

II:
Gentle little minds

I:
- And yet ...

II:
She once noticed him
Enough to say
Close enough to know
He'd undressed
And dressed again

I:
Not so -

II:
Somewhere along -

I:
- Long ago

II:
- His way

Doctor and leader:
The diamond on his ankle
With its felt out
