I have fought for survival and fought for beliefs I’ve been fighting since time first began Since we learned to walk upright I’ve been marching to war It’s a curse that’s the burden of man I’ve been hailed as a hero and damned as a fool By those I have sworn to defend But no matter how far or how long I’m away I just want to go back home again
I may not return in the way we had hoped And not in the way we had dreamed But if all that remain are the memories you hold Then that will be all right by me
I fought in the heather on wild windswept hills I have fought through the deserts of Spain I fought for Raj – where my body lies still And I fought through the Normandy Rain I have fought as a hero and fought as a fool I’ve cried and I’ve died all alone But no matter wherever this body may fall The spirit will find its way home
I may not return in the way we had hoped And not in the way we had dreamed But if all that remain are the memories you hold Then that will be all right by me
