Fallen Soldier - Written and Performed by Paul Webb - L'Ardoise, Nova Scotia

My uncle Paul Webb wrote this song for the soldiers at war

Lyrics:

I heard it on the news today
another soldier's down
it hurts a little more this time
he comes from my home town
He isnt barely 24 or maybe 25
that was back before the war
back when he was alive

fallen soldier, they sent him off to war
to fight for peace and liberty
now he'll fight no more
he leaves behind a loving wife
A daughter, and a son
who'll have to fight their own wars
now that their daddy's gone

Is freedom really worth the cost
of losing all these lives
I guess it really all depends
who dies and who survives
just ask the loved ones left behind
if the world's a better place
they may just say your world or mine
as tears roll down their face

fallen soldier, they sent him off to war
to fight for peace and liberty
now he'll fight no more
he leaves behind a loving wife
A daughter, and a son
who'll have to fight their own wars
now that their daddy's gone

They'll have to fight their own wars
now that their daddy's gone
