LONESTAR - Somebody's Someone lyrics

rate me

Turn to the six o'clock news, another soldier dies

Tried to hide it but I couldn't help it, I had to cry

When my little boy asked me daddy was he your friend

I said no, I didn't even know him

But he was somebody's someone, a neighbor, a husband

A brother, a father, and a mother's only son

He was an uncle, a cousin, somebody's best friend

And I'm sure at times a shoulder to lean on

He was somebody's someone

So I sat there in that chair and helped him understand

How this brave young man gave his life for our land

And although he's someone we'll never know

To you and me he is a hero

He was somebody's someone, a neighbor, a husband

A brother, a father, and a mother's only son

He was an uncle, a cousin, somebody's best friend

And I'm sure at times a shoulder to lean on

He was somebody's someone

To the world he was a total stranger

Who kept us safe and out of danger

But now he's just a picture on TV

Somebody's memory

He was somebody's someone, a neighbor, a husband

A brother, a father, and a mother's only son

He was an uncle, a cousin, somebody's best friend

And I'm sure at times a shoulder to lean on

He was somebody's someone

He was somebody's someone
