You never lived to see what you gave to me
One shining dream of hope and love, life and liberty
With a host of brave, unknown soldiers for your company
You will live forever here in our memory
In fields of sacrifice, heroes paid the price
Young men who died for old men's wars gone into paradise
We are all one great band of brothers
And one day you'll see we can live together when all the world is free
When all the world is free, when all the world is free
I wish you'd lived to see, all you gave to me
Your shining dream of hope and love, life and liberty
We are all one great band of brothers
And one day you'll see we can live together when all the world is free
