A SOLDIER'S QUESTION I lay here reddening foreign soil Whispering my last breath I've said my prayers, my last goodbyes I've just one question left Why did I come here and fight? Why was I willing to die? Was it for honor, glory or fame The question I ask of I As I lay here wondering all at once I knew For through the rain I see a rise Of 50 stars on blue I did this not for glory for medals nor for fame I did this for a little boy with my face who bears my name And for every other boy like him and ever little girl who cries and every man who dreams of peace but cant speak it else he dies I die for every mother praying It matters not to whom she prays For all she wants is for her kids Better and peaceful days I slip now from this earthen bond Watching my flag fly in the rain Knowing as my eyes now close I didn't die in vain.
