Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sand in his teeth
Smoke in his eyes
Somewhere back home
She’s hangin’ clothes to dry
Mail call again
Just one short line
“Man, I heard a rumor
She’s been runnin’ round at night”
[Chorus]
So he wrote a letter from a hero
Folded it up with a shaking hand
“If I don’t make it home
Please understand”
“I did it for my brothers
I did it for this flag I hold”
Signed his name in the dark
On that last, crumpled note
Thought his heart died alone
On that foreign road
[Verse 2]
He stepped in front
Took all that fire
Pulled three good boys
Through a wall of wire
He heard one say
“Man, you’re goin’ home”
Then everything went quiet
Like a Sunday morning song
[Chorus]
In that letter from a hero
He never wrote about the pain
Just “Tell my girl I’m sorry
If I brought her shame”
“I did it for my brothers
For the story you’ll be told”
Signed his name in the dark
On that last, crumpled note
Thought his heart died alone
On that foreign road
[Bridge]
Back on that porch
Under June rain skies
She’s holdin’ his dog tags
Wipin’ her eyes
Baby on her hip
Kicks against her hand
“Your daddy was a hero
And he loved you more than I can” (oh)
[Chorus]
It’s a letter from a hero
Read aloud in a trembling voice
Church pews filled with flowers
And a proud, small-town noise
“He did it for his brothers
For the story we’ll be told”
She whispers to the baby
As the flag is gently folded
“Your daddy never knew
But he saved our world”
