Love Vigilantes (1994)
[Verse 1]
Oh, I've just come
From the land of the sun
From a war that must be won
In the name of truth
Warlike soldiers so brave
Your freedoms we will save
With our rifles and grenades
And some help from God
[Chorus]
I wanna see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I've got to go home
I've been so alone, you see
I wanna see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I've got to go home
I've been so alone, you see
[Verse 2]
You just can't believe
The joy I did receive
When I finally got my leave
And I was going home
Oh, I flew through the sky
My convictions couldn't liе
For my country I would die
And I will see it soon
[Chorus]
I wanna see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I'vе got to go home
I've been so alone, you see
I wanna see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I've got to go home
I've been so alone, you see
[Verse 3]
When I walked through the door
My wife she lay upon the floor
With tears in her eyes she swore
I did not know why
Then I looked into her hand
And I saw the telegram
That said that I was a brave, brave man
But that I was dead
[Chorus]
I wanna see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I've got to go home
I've been so alone, you see
I wanna see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I've got to go home
I've been so alone, you see
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I wanna see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I've got to go home
I've been so alone, you see
I wanna see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I've got to go home
I've been so alone, you see
I wanna see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I've got to go home
I've been so alone, you see
I wanna see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I've got to go home
I've been so alone, you see (Alone)
[Outro]
I wanna see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I've got to go home
I've been so alone, you see
