You are a young man, but much older than I
You have lived a life more important than mine
You have fought for my freedom and I thank you for that
Because of your bravery I know where my children are at
They are safe at home all cozy and snug
Never even thinking of the war battled and won
When they get older I will tell them why they are free
About the lives lost for them and their children to be
You fought a war when the world was a mess
With tyrants and bigots killing our friends
You saved our lives by putting yours on the line
How can we repay you for all your precious time?
The sadness sets it when I realize what I say
The fact remains I cant tell you everyday
Because, you paid a sacrifice that is divine.
Your life for ours , Your life for mine.
