André Rieu - Lost Heroes lyrics

Ocean bird, I wish to tell you

A story from a long time ago.

Oh ocean bird, I wish to tell you

That sad old song you have to know.

America, so many heroes

They left their homes and crossed the waves.

America, you sent your young boys

Oh ocean bird, how must I tell you

That sad old song? They came to save us!

America, so many heroes

They lost their lives and filled the graves.

America, we love your heroes

America, we are your friends

America, we’ll always love you

And keep you in our hearts and hands

America, so many heroes

They left their homes and crossed the waves.

America, you die of grief now

Oh ocean bird, how must I tell you

That sad new song? They are in pain now!

America, we share your sorrow,

America, let hope remain...
