Why Midlo captured my heart with song....

[Lost in CT]

Can you hear the drums Midlo?
I remember long ago another starry night like this
In the firelight Midlo
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar

They were closer now Midlo
Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid Midlo
We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
And Im not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Midlo
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Midlo
Though I never thought that we could lose
Theres no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Midlo

Now were old and grey Midlo
And since many years I havent seen a box of wine in your hand
Can you hear the drums Midlo ?
Do you still recall the frightful night we crossed the Nanticoke?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Midlo
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Midlo
Though I never thought that we could lose
Theres no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Midlo

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Midlo
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Midlo
Though I never thought that we could lose
Theres no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Midlo
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Midlo...

On Edit I was overcome with emotion from the beauty of the song....
