Twilight, and I'm alone
On a battlefield so far from my home
My wife [bad word] through the fields of my mind
My only prayer is to see her again sometime

It's been a year now since I've seen your face
beautiful thing that all my dreams could never replace
How I long to feel your touch and hear your voice
And God knows how I want to hold my little boy
 [bad word] 
But I am too proud, to be forgotten
I've given too much, to be forsaken now
Just keep that American flag in our yard flying
Cause I'm a patriot and, I don't mind dying

I don't know what God has in store for me
But if I don't return, I only ask one thing
Don't let my memory fade too far away
And tell my son how much I love him every day

It's getting closer now; I can hear the sounds of home
Seems like forever here, the time has passed so slow
Too many men came here who will never leave
sad reminder of the cost to be free

Final [bad word] 
And they were too proud, to be forgotten
They gave too much to be forsaken now
So I'll keep that American flag in our yard flying
For all the patriots who went down fighting
