: It’s hard to speak of how it was
: I heard my father say
: I didn’t understand it then
: I understand today
:
: He saw Tarawa and Iwo
: Fought at Okinawa too
: He often sat in silence
: Thinking of those times he knew
:
: Sometimes after too much scotch
: He’d get that certain look
: And speak in very measured tones
: With a voice that sometimes shook
:
: He spoke about the good times
: His shipmates and the sea
: Never spoke of all the battles
: Always kept that part from me
:
: But when I came home from the war
: My eyes told him I knew
: So we both sat drinking scotch
: ‘Cause there was nothing else to do
