You went away and risked your lives
Gave a Goodbye kiss to your children
and your wives.
For you I cry these tears.
You risk your life for those you do not
know , you have respect for us but for you
little is shown.
For you I cry these tears.
You hear of protests against the soldier that
fights, They don't realize your their to
protect their rights.
for you I cry these tears.
Well I for one am glad you fought for me
you helped me to appreciate what it is
to be free, and if we should meet , don't
think of me less of a man if you see me
cry as I often do, These tears I cry,
are tears of pride, These tears I cry,
I cry for you.
