Lyrics

They were bringing him home,down the highway of hero's, He gave his life,as everybody knows, He paid,the ultimate price,so we could all be free, And he will always be remembered,by you and me, And when he signed up,to go far away, To fight for the freedom,that we enjoy today, We couldn't imagine,we wouldn't see him again, As that big plane set down,the reality set in, Chorus And we could remember,when he was young, and how he'd run and play,and just have fun, We new he'd grow up,to be a fine young man, But we never thought,this would be God's plan, Bridge Well he said,he always new,what he wanted to do, When he grew up,and before his life was through, He would be a soldier,for the good of mankind, And he would rid the world,of those, with an evil mind, And we all stood at attention,on that overpass, And waved our flags,for this hero,who was first class, He was finally home now,where he would stay, And he died doing,what he wanted,more than some can say, Chorus+Bridge Well,we might spend,all our life,wondering,why we are here, But people like this young man,never had that fear, They new from day one,what they're calling was, Their life might be short,but for a noble cause, They are the ones,that grew up fast,and made a mark, And their tree of life,grew tall,and gave us a spark, And they were the hero's ,we were proud to know, We won't never forget,they helped us all to grow, Chorus
