Caught In The Crossfire Lyrics - April Wine

(myles goodwyn) 

Published by northern goody two tunes, ltd./capac - ascap 

On assignment to the new world 

They said there'd be more chance for war 

Missed the shuttle to the main star 

They promised they'd be back for more, oh yeah 

Then the warships came without a sound 

There were at least a hundred of them bearing down 

Caught in the crossfire 

Caught in a world insane, lord 

War of the empire 

No one will be the same, oh 

Caught in the crossfire 

Caught in a new age war, we were 

I heard somebody say we'd be wasted 

Under fire we were without defense 

My buddy said he had a space van 

A long range cruiser, it was our only chance, oh yeah 

We could see no way out but one 

There was no choice but to try and run 

Caught in the crossfire 

Caught in a world insane, lord 

War of the empire 

No one will be the same, oh 

Caught in the crossfire 

Caught in a new age war, we were 

Odyssey, laser fight 

One shot, last fight 

Passed the warships through the neutral zone 

Our engines sheared the night as we raced for home 

Caught in the crossfire 

Caught in a world insane, lord 

War of the empire 

No one will be the same, oh 

Caught in the crossfire 

Caught in a new age war, we were 

Caught in the crossfire 

Caught in a new age war
