So far away, away from home
Uncertainty is all we've known
Thinking about you I say a prayer
Over and over, I want you to know how much I care.

And how can I say thank you,
How can I let you know the way I feel about you
Certainly a hero, just wanted to say 'thank you'
Though it may have cost your life,
Did you ever once think twice
Yet, you're willing to make the ultimate sacrifice.

Days and nights you were afraid,
Convinced your heart be strong and brave
Not here to judge who's right, who's wrong
But from my heart I sing this song
Wanting to say you 'thank you'

How can I let you know the way I feel about you,
Certainly a hero, I wanted to say 'thank you'
Though it may have cost your life,
Did you ever once think twice
Yet willing to make the ultimate sacrifice.

Men and women, different races, all around the world
Come together united, hand in hand.
Wipe the tears from all the faces from every boy and girl
Giving them the chance to live free and dance.

Thank you, how am I to let you know the way I feel about you?
Certainly a hero, I just wanna say 'thank you'
Though it may have cost your life,
Did you ever once think twice
Yet willing to make the ultimate sacrifice.
Yet, willing to make the ultimate sacrifice.
