Tonart: G minor
Verse 1
Em
One frozen night in 1914,
at the height of World War I,
the unthinkable happened.
All along the entire Western Front,
the British and German soldiers
lay down their weapons
in an unofficial ceasefire
to celebrate Christmas Eve
together.
Em
and saw each other as brothers,
and that peace lasted for two more days
when they were ordered back to battle.
C
though,
men remembered the reason
for Christmas
amongst the devastation.
And it's a story
that should never be forgotten.
