When a Soldier Makes it Home

When a Soldier Makes it Home - Arlo Guthrie (阿洛·古利)[00:00:00]

Halfway around the world tonight[00:00:30]

In a strange and foreign land[00:00:33]

A soldier packs his memories[00:00:37]

As he leaves Afghanistan[00:00:40]

Back home they don't know too much[00:00:45]

There's just no way to tell[00:00:48]

I guess you had to be there[00:00:52]

For to know that war was hell[00:00:55]

And there won't be any victory parades[00:01:00]

For those that's coming back[00:01:03]

They'll fly them in at midnight[00:01:08]

And unload the body sacks[00:01:11]

Living will be walking down[00:01:15]

A long and lonely road[00:01:18]

Because nobody seems to care these days[00:01:24]

When a soldier makes it home[00:01:28]

They'll say it wasn't easy[00:01:38]

Just another job well done[00:01:41]

As the government in Kabul falls[00:01:45]

To the sounds of rebel guns[00:01:48]

And the faces of the comrades[00:01:52]

Being blown out of the sky[00:01:55]

Leaves you bitter with the feeling[00:01:59]

That they didn't have to die[00:02:03]

And there won't be any victory parades[00:02:07]

For those that's coming back[00:02:11]

They'll fly them in at midnight[00:02:15]

And unload the body sacks[00:02:18]

And the living will be walking down[00:02:22]

A long and lonely road[00:02:25]

Because nobody seems to care these days[00:02:31]

When a soldier makes it home[00:02:35]

Halfway around the world tonight[00:03:22]

In a strange and foreign land[00:03:26]

A soldier unpacks memories[00:03:29]

That he saved from Vietnam[00:03:33]

Back home they didn't know too much[00:03:37]

There was just no way to tell[00:03:40]

I guess you had to be there[00:03:44]

For to know that war was hell[00:03:48]

And there wasn't any big parades[00:03:52]

For those that made it back[00:03:55]

They flew them in at midnight[00:04:00]

And unloaded all the sacks[00:04:03]

And the living were left walking down[00:04:07]

A long and lonely road[00:04:10]

Because nobody seemed to care back then[00:04:16]

When a soldier made it home[00:04:20]

The night is coming quickly[00:04:30]

And the stars are on their way[00:04:33]

As I stare into the evening[00:04:36]

Looking for the words to say[00:04:40]

That I saw the lonely soldier[00:04:44]

Just a boy that's far from home[00:04:47]

And I saw that I was just like him[00:04:51]

While upon this earth I roam[00:04:55]

And there may not be any big parades[00:04:59]

If I ever make it back[00:05:03]

As I come home under cover[00:05:06]

Through a world that can't keep track[00:05:10]

Of the heroes who have fallen[00:05:13]

Let alone the ones who won't[00:05:17]

Which is why nobody seems to care[00:05:23]

When a soldier makes it home[00:05:27]
