Belleau Wood Lyrics
Artist(Band):Garth Brooks
Review The Song (3)Print the Lyrics
Oh the snow flakes fell in silence
Over Belleau Wood that night
For a Christmas truce had been declared
By both sides of the fight
As we laid there in our trenches
The silence broke in two
By a German soldier singing
A song that we all knew

Though I did not know the language
The song was Silent Night
Then I heard my buddy whisper
"All is calm, all is bright"
Then the fear and doubt surrounded me
Cause I'd die if I was wrong
But I stood up in my trench
And I began to sing along

Then across the frozen battlefield
Another's voice joined in
Until one by one each man became
A singer of the hymn

Then I thought I was dreaming
For right there in my sight
Stood the German soldier
Neath the falling flakes of white
And he raised his hand and smiled at me
As if seemed to say
Here's hoping we both live to see
Us find a better way

Then the devils clock struck midnight
And the skies lit up again
And the battlefield where heaven stood
Was blown to hell again

But for just one fleeting moment
The answer seemed so clear
Heaven's not beyond the clouds
Its just beyond the fear

No heaven's not beyond the clouds
It's for us to find here

Review about Belleau Wood

It's a true story. | Reviewer: Jeffie | 8/20/2007

The Christmas Truce of 1914. The last dying gasp of chivalry, as it lay torn and bloody and soaked in the freezing mud of the trenches of Belgium.

"This song is about how sometimes war is the best answer" my right damn eye.

War | Reviewer: Foxy | 5/23/2007

Actually it shows that the Enemy is just a person fighting for their cause, just like you.

I love this song | Reviewer: Caitlin Harris | 11/18/2005

I really love this song. I think it shows that war is usually not the best answer, but sometimes it is. I think it also shows that we need to over come our fears that we are dealing with in out lives. Either it is past or present or future. We just need to give them to God. Thanks Garth for a beautiful song.
