Lyrics
you were so far from home
You were so far from home, i never knew you
sincerely yours
You make me happy and sad, sam i m glad you re on my side
i never knew you
When it was over, i hope she understands
Sam i m glad you re on my side, i never knew you
And though the sun would shine about the same, was there a sweetheart at home
Sam you were all that you had, i don t know you
For laughs i ll call you sam, i might go and thank, i never met you
did you play basketball
Was there a sweetheart at home, i never knew you Soldier, but i m told you re the best that we had
for laughs i ll call you sam
did you write her letters
I d buy the beers, was there a sweetheart at home, a daughter with a little one
i never knew you
Are you happy or sad, when it was over, a daughter with a little one
But i know you re the best man i know, see it coming in the back of your mind To, are you happy or sad
Did you write her letters, i don t know you Five, i never met you
i never met you
did you write her letters
You were so far from home, was there a sweetheart at home, if you were here
But i m told you re the best that we had, i never met you
Are you happy or sad, did it make you better face the great unknown
I never met you, did it make you better face the great unknown, when it was over
Did you have a son, sam did you feel alone, are you happy or sad
You were the son, see it coming in the back of your mind, you were the son
i d buy the beers
i might go and thank
I d shake your hand and say good man, could you tell it was time
