Never Came Back

Oh

I'm not a bird

I'm not as elegant as a swan

I'm about as elegant as an elephant on roller skates

I'm just a school girl

On a balloon flight

Riding in the sky

All you did was crush it

All you did was crush me

Crushed, crushed were my dreams

Of flying where you flew

When you went up

And visited The Lord

When you fought

You saved me, old friend

You served in Iraq

And you never came back

Goodbye, Patrick,

For you never came back..
