A Mothers Son - Glenn Reid |
|
| Verse 1: |
There were tears that last good-bye.
|
| There was pride in his father’s eyes. |
| He would fly many miles away |
| to the land where poppies grow. |
| |
| Verse 2: There was fear but he’d face it down |
| for the brave soldiers all around. |
| Duty bound he would fight and how |
| it would end no one could know. |
| |
| Chorus: Was a man….someone’s brother. |
| Was a boy….when all’s said and done. |
| Was a man….a friend and lover. |
| Was a boy….was a mother’s son. |
| |
| LEAD ON VERSE |
| |
| Verse 3: There were tears, family, and friends |
| when at last he came back again. |
| Carried home by six brave men |
|
to the crosses row on row.
