1918

 

She's taken him to the Station

to see him off, you see ~

The year is 1918, and

France seems the place to be.

 

He's anxious to get going

She wants to keep him near

She holds a silken Blue Star flag

and muffles all her fear.

 

Mother, now I wonder

If your son lived to be old

How did your lives move forward?

Did the Blue Star turn to Gold?

 

Mother, now I wonder ~

What things did your boy see;

When the year was 1918,

and France, the place to be...
