This one's for our dear Veterans
We live in a relatively free nation, but we often take those freedoms, and those who have fought to preserve them, for granted. This song is a tribute to Veterans, and to those on active duty, who bravely and proudly fight for those very treasures we all too often take for granted. So veterans, troops, families of vets, families of troops, we salute you on this day.
This song is from the CD, The Truth Hurts. It's track number 7 on the 8 songs you'll find here:

In this world we face so many trials
so many heartaches we must endure
a tragic flight on the shores of New York city
so many lives crushed beneath the driftin' sea
so many times we wanna hang our heads and cry
so weary from the battle
so many times we wanna
lay down and die
but we will never go home
we will never go home
another shore so many will remember
that D-day battle off the shores of Normandy
the allied forces faced inclement weather
so many lives crushed beneath the bitter sea
the soldiers tasted bullets
at Point De La Perci
but heroes such as Moody, Dawson
and General Montgomery refused to go home
they would never go home
sometimes we cry
sometimes we scream
sometimes we wanna wake up from
terror's dark dream
we wanna go home
we just wanna go home
until the sovereign general beckons
it's time to go home
