Songtext von Stories Of A Hero

The time has come Said a young man to his bride The train waits outside And though I leave You know I'll keep you by my side She holds on a final time Soldier's gone to war Told her he's comin' home Soldier's gone to war He's gonna be a hero in his hometown, lord She stands alone On a platform lookin' sad He waves through a pane of glass And though she hopes He will be comin' home at last Her heart knows what's gonna pass Soldier has gone to war Don't know it, but he ain't comin' home no more Soldier has gone to war He's gonna be known as a hero in his hometown, lord Soldier's gone to war Told her he's comin' home Soldier has gone to war He's gonna be known as a hero in his hometown, lord The paper falls to the floor from a trembling hand The words they burn to the soul And though she cries, she doesn't really understand The world's gone so cold Soldier went to war Told her he'd be comin' home Soldier went to war Gonna be a big hero in his hometown, lord And the stories tell of bravery, yeah He was golden as the sun Well he fought for you and he fought for me, yeah And he died for everyone Stories of a hero Stories of a hero Well it seems as though the world ain't changed It goes on and on for years When men must die to be called brave To earn respect among their peers Stories of a hero Stories of a hero
