When he came back

When he came back from the war So much different than before. He would sit and stare at the wall. Thinking there was nothing more. Do you know what I mean. Because nobody knew what he had seen When he decided to go to war Thought that he would just explore. He kissed her gently and said goodbye. Promised he’d be back, please don’t cry. But you know what I mean. Because nobody knew what he had seen His wife would remember all the good times they had had. She’d recall he promised her He’d be a real good dad But now none of this will ever be. When he came back from the war He didn't need a woman any more She washed his face and combed his hair. Only when she had time to spare. But you know what I mean. Guess you know what I mean. Because no one saw what he had seen.
