FREEDOM FLIGHT

"They brought us back on the Freedom Flight
Thirty hours ago - the jungle fight
Leave pass and pay - Now kill no more
Switch yourself off from the TV War
Our debrief was, you'll get over this one
And so we stood on old Mascot
Home again - Now that's a lark
How many years you'll carry the spark

The troubled years move swiftly by
And even though your loved ones try
There's broken homes, suicide and booze
There's strange dreams you cannot loose
Home will be the peace of your heart
But until your Home, there's no start

Now we all came home at a different date
But for me it's getting late
So if by the mound you wish me best
Maybe then you'll say:
He's home - At Rest."
