A soldier boy and his violin / Uneasy wartime
ballet / Omaha Beach / Normandy on D-Day / As his
fellow man lay dying / And crimson tide colored
the shore / Sons cried for their mothers / Bitter
pill of war / He strikes the strings / His heart
is on parade / Knows one day he'll be gone / But
his melody will stay / A teenage boy in his attic
/ Finds a case tattered and torn / His father's
violin / Companion through the war / He dusts off
the fiddle / And raises up to his chin / What the
old leave behind / And what the young begin
