Somewhere he is singing
He speaks without the pain
He watchs for the details
He loves the sun and rain
He pa**ed away yesterday
Now he's finally on his way
His heartbeat reaches to the ones
Who loved him everyday
He was a hero in the past
He saved a life ...a few
Served in the 7th Calvary
And fought for freedom too
Viet Nam left him with so much pain
And he has really suffered
He gave his country valor
They gave him oakleaf clusters
Upon the Bronze star medal
This token of the brave
His nightmares never settled
From the k**ing and the saved
There's a movie in the making...
They say Mel Gibson is the star
Its about the 7th Calvary
And events that happened far
So far away from all of us
That most don't have a clue
That Allan's valor will speak again...
This man that we all knew
They'll show all the suffering
The helicopter crashes
The crossfire of a nightmare
When young men met their Master
When bravery and victory
Came to those with guts
When Allan and his young boy heart
Fought for all of us.
May they all rest in peace.
