Lyrics

IN A MOTHER’S EYES
(Alvina Krotzer-Homecoming)
Songwriter (c) 1999 Andrew Dean

The day that our flagpole was ready, We had no flag to fly
Then a mother stepped forward and said I have a flag with a tear in her eye
It was given to me the day that we laid my son to rest
He was a true blue soldier who gave his life his best

I got a knot in my throat and a chill in my bones
A tear rolled down my face
A mother has lost her son at war
The pain on her face

In a mother’s eyes you can see red, white, and blue
In a mother’s eyes you can see the pain so true
Freedom comes with a cost of sadness and loss
You can see in a mother’s eye

When someone puts their life on the line so others can be free
It’s a selfless act of courage and love, how thankful we all should be
And when I see the flag today, I see a whole new meaning there
I see the men and the women who died for her
So in this freedom we can share

In a mother’s eyes you can see red, white, and blue
In a mother’s eyes you can see the pain so true
Freedom comes with a cost of sadness and loss
You can see in a mother’s eye

In a mother’s eyes you can see red, white, and blue
In a mother’s eyes you can see the pain so true
Freedom comes with a cost of sadness and loss
You can see in a mother’s eyes.

* In memory of PFC Lynn Robin Krotzer (KIA 1969 Vietnam)
