He went over as a soldier
Not knowing anything at all.
But know he is coming home a hero
To all that knew him well.
His wife cries before him
As she lays a red rose upon him.
As a sergant gives her a flag
And tells her he is sorry.
She bows her head and looks at the open grave before her, smiling.
Knowing he came home a hero
And died for protecting his country.
