Lyrics

I combed through photographs, black and white and grey
Looked through your letters they were sitting on the page
I read the books but there were too many mistakes
I stepped inside your steps but I was walking way too late
I tried to count you but you had too many names
I tried to sum you up there was always more to say
I tried to hear you through the veil of time and space
I would hold you for a moment but you always slipped away
Young men leaving their homes
Young men who never grow old
In the fast light of a firefight you wrote a song and it rolled right through me
Sung high in my mind’s eye by all your friends who will always surround me
If we’re blessed and you are cursed how is the luck to be repaid
Is it better to be living than to ever have been brave
What would I do if I was standing in your place
My body and your body I remember every day
Young men leaving their homes
Young men into the unknown
Young men leaving their homes
Young men who never grow old
In the fast light of a firefight you wrote a song and it rolled right through me
Sung high in my mind’s eye by all your friends who will always surround me
Na na na na na, you wrote a song and it rolled right through me
Na na na na na, you wrote a song and it rolled right through me
When night is fallen on the bed that I have made
Like the mud that you slept in beneath the stars above the fray
Be my friend inside a song and let the song forever change
And the changing be that memory I remember every day
Yeah, the changing be that memory I remember every day
In the fast light of a firefight you wrote a song and it rolled right through me
Na na na na na, you wrote a song and it rolled right through me
