Lyrics
A soldier boy and his violin / uneasy wartime ballet / omaha beach / normandy on d-day / as his fellow man lay dying / and crimson tide colored the shore / sons cried for their mothers / bitter pill of war / he strikes the strings / his heart is on parade / knows one day he'll be gone / but his melody will stay / a teenage boy in his attic / finds a case tattered and torn / his father's violin / companion through the war / he dusts off the fiddle / and raises up to his chin / what the old leave behind / and what the young begin
