It’s late at night I pray, For the Lord to guide your way, I’ve been watching news every day. And I don’t know you at all, But look at you standing tall, As America runs through your veins.
(Chorus) Good night soldier, good night friend, ’Cause when I’m sleeping here at night, You’re out protecting. Good night soldier, good night friend, Please come home, So I can see you again.
There’s a lot of mom and dads who care, Everyone’s a son and daughter out there, Man, I’ve cried with love for you all. I’ve seen a lot of halo’s in the sky, Lord bless the one’s who have died, Can you tie a yellow ribbon around us all?
(Chorus) Good night soldier, good night friend, ’Cause when I’m sleeping here at night, You’re out protecting. Good night soldier, good night friend, Please come home, So I can see you again.
