The Shadows Of The Night
As I wait to sleep at night,the shadows come and I must fight.
A book,some music to stay awake,all my rest the shadows take.
The friends the foes that died in Nam,the visions just go on and on.
All the faces I see so clear,the pain,the death, and all the fear.
I lay my head on my pillow to sleep,my soul and body my Lord to keep.
There I lay and try to rest, the shadows put me through the test.
My mind will wonder to the days,the war, the people, the twisted ways.
Now I must win this fight,to conquer the shadows of the night

Now I must win this fight,to conquer the shadows of the night
