red petalled flower - ted comiskey lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
by the swings in the park on a november day
i watched as my boys on the climbers did play
and there near the flag stood a man by the bell
with a red petalled flower placed on his lapel

[verse 2]
i watched as he studied a wreath on the ground
a man all alone while the world rushed around
i could see in his face there was pain in his eyes
as memories rushed by like the clouds in the sky

[chorus]
and i thank my god for the brave ones he gave
to keep us free, our rights to save
and the ones he took home are remembered well
by the red petalled flower placed on his lapel

[verse 3]
what friends did you leave in the sea or the fields?
what pain you endured because you would not yield?
until you could come home knowing what you had done
allowed me to stand here in peace with my sons

[verse 4]
he looked up at me and i nodded my head
nothing was spoken till i finally said
“thank you.” he smiled and i left him alone
and showed both my boys all those names on the stones
[chorus]
and i thank my god for the brave one he gave
to keep us free, and our rights to save
and the ones he took home are remembered well
by the red petalled flower placed on my lapel

[outro]
by the red petalled flower placed on my lapel
