[Intro]
In the quiet of the morning, the world feels so still,
A soldier's gone home, his time to rest, his heart to heal.
He's a hero, a brother, in our hearts he'll stay,
Forever in our memories, never far away.
[Verse 1]
He volunteered for battle, faced the unseen,
A Marine standing guard, brave and serene.
Went into the danger, studied the unknown,
Risked everything, so we're safe at home.
[Pre-Chorus]
Now we hold his memory, bright as the sun,
A life so precious, a race run.
Though he's no longer walking here with us,
His spirit lives, in all of us.
[Chorus]
Goodbye, our hero, rest in peaceful grace,
You fought so hard, in that deadly place.
Our hearts are heavy, tears in our eyes,
We say goodbye, but you’ll never die.
[Bridge]
You gave your all, for our peace of mind,
A love so deep, so pure, so kind.
In heaven's gates, you guard us still,
With courage, strength, and iron will.
[Outro]
So farewell, dear brother, till we meet again,
Your legacy, your sacrifice, will forever remain.
In every heartbeat, in every prayer,
You are our hero, always there.
