"Welcome Home"
-Eric

Now the boys came home, Annie cried and Annie cheered
She'd on her own for a long and lonely year
Living for his letters far away Vietnam
And dreading the official

So she was waiting at the when his train came rolling in
She ached with of holding him again
And suddenly he was standing in his crumpled uniform
In a she was in his arms

home, boys, welcome home
Don't you know, you've been too long
Did you wonder, there,
when you tired, when you were scared,
If your country cared, welcome home

a nation goes to war, everyone's a casualty
Some are maimed and scarred, most have you cannot see
So in of the man that she had known,
Annie found instead, a sick and troubled in her bed

But she was stubborn, she was lovin', so she stayed all through the
The hard times and the drinking, the nightmares and the
For where is muddy quicksand, love is tempered steel
Annie waited for his to heal

Welcome home, boys, home
Don't you know, been gone too long
just so glad that you're alive
And only you will why
You lived others died, welcome home

So on a Sydney morning, I heard old war drums beat
and watched the boys come marching, down the street*
To their place in the nation's heart
that their blood and had earned
A nation that rejoiced in return

And if the day to heal some wounds is a matter of debate
For some it had come none too soon, for far too late
But I found myself hoping, as the boys went past
for them the war was over, at last

Welcome home, boys, home
Don't you know, you've been too long
What you through in Vietnam, we can't begin to understand
But to each and every man, home

Welcome home, boys, welcome
Don't you know, you've been too long
May the bring you release, as the memories decrease
May you find kind of peace, welcome home
May you find some of peace, welcome home
