Letters in the sand
Fallen from his hand
He misses where they come from
I know where they've been
Kept inside his heart
To save him from the dark
And from a war they say
Never should have been
One was from his brother
Who said he never should have gone
Another from his wife
Who wrote about her love for him
On and on and on
The last was from his mother
She sent him all her love
When he comes back to her
Please bring another home
Letters in his hand
Fallen to the sand
He fell upon the fray
To save another man
As he saved a fellow soldier
His own life falling fast
He thanked his brother, wife and mother
Then he breathed his last
