Oh war that took
our love away,
to a distant land
where dangers lay.
Please keep him safe
for he took our heart
as a parting gift,
when he did depart.
Oh war that took
our love to sea,
where a twist of fate
his destiny.
Ten fathoms deep
his submarine,
when the enemy on
the horizon seen.
Oh war that tore
our world apart,
though so much promised
at the start.
And yes, we know
the war, we won,
but it took from us,
our precious son.
