Lyric

Father stood there, said no word

Just one tap on my shoulder

And in that touch, I understood

He raised me strong—I thank him now

Steam from Mom’s morning meal

So warm, so kind, it made me feel

Even when I cried alone

Her soft hum wrapped me like home

If my life could guard someone

Then let my future come undone

As long as smiles stay in the light

I’ll spread my wings and take that flight

Even if I have no name

This pride inside still burns the same

I know that I can’t return

But I have no deep concern

Just to meet you once was worth

Enough to prove my life had worth

No grave, no name, but still I stay

To hold this world in quiet ways

My dear love, your day is near

I dreamed of giving you that ring

A tiny gift I held with care

But never gave you anything

Your last words on paper said

“Come back to me,” still in my head

Even now, they pull me through

And give me strength to think of you

Don’t cry now—please just know

Your son stood tall and didn’t fold

This single life, I gave with grace

To guard another in your place

As if I’m shouting out a name

I disappear in sky again

Not with tears but prayers instead

This sky I leave with words unsaid

Even if I burn away

If I could wish for one last day

I’d ask for you to smile and say

“I’ve loved again, and that’s okay”

Sweat and sand through every fight

Comrades standing side by side

“Let’s meet again,” we laughed so wide

That line kept me alive inside

To my friends—your voices stay

Echoed in my heart each day

Till the end, we faced the flame

Now I fly with you again

If this life can still mean more

Let it not bring hate or war

Use it gently, hand to hand

To help someone—you’ll understand

If tomorrow has no pain

I believe it still remains

So I will fly—my name unknown

With pride from all who’ve flown alone

Soon, the morning light will rise

And reach you where you sleep tonight

If you feel the wind so near

Then know that I am standing here

“Thank you”—that’s all I can say

As I return… to sky and day
