Going Home
First snow of the winter, cold New Brunswick day
Flight was out of Fredericton, three hour delay
Military plane, soldier coming home
His family there to meet him
We are tired
We are proud
We are sad
We are strong
We are going home
Boots were shined, faces stern
Respect in every way
Another country stands defended
What a price to pay
For many years it's happened, a ritual intact
We can't forget the price
Coming home
We are tired
We are proud
We are sad
We are strong
We are going home
We are tired
We are proud
We are sad
We are strong
We are going home
We are going home
