I was watching the news tonight
|
Anchorman said there was a fight
|
And a young man died from his wounds
|
They showed pictures of the battle
|
And I almost turned the channel
|
Like I always seem to do
|
Then it hit me like a freight train coming through
|
|
Thata¢æ¢âs somebodya¢æ¢âs son,
|
Somebodya¢æ¢âs husband,
|
Somebodya¢æ¢âs everything,
|
Out there someonea¢æ¢âs coming undone
|
It made me wonder if anyone really wins
|
When every war has to be won
|
With somebodya¢æ¢âs son
|
|
I walked down the hall to check
|
On my youngest lying in bed
|
And I stood there watching him dream
|
I tried but I couldna¢æ¢ât imagine how we would feel if something happened
|
And I didna¢æ¢ât have him here with me
|
Then I cried for that dead boy and his family
|
|
Hea¢æ¢âs somebodya¢æ¢âs son,
|
Somebodya¢æ¢âs husband,
|
Somebodya¢æ¢âs everything,
|
Out there someonea¢æ¢âs coming undone.
|
It made me wonder if anyone really wins
|
When every war has to be won
|
Hea¢æ¢âs somebodya¢æ¢âs son
|
|
Somebodya¢æ¢âs son,
|
Somebodya¢æ¢âs husband,
|
Somebodya¢æ¢âs everything.
|
Out there someonea¢æ¢âs coming undone.
|
It made me wonder if anyone really wins
|
When every war has to be won
|
With somebody's son
|
