Somewhere here among these many soldiers of Americans who all died true and brave
That's where I know I'll find him resting so I'm here I'm searching for his grave
You ask me stranger why I made this journey
Why I crossed three thousand miles of rolling waves
Like many others my darling's killed in action
That's why I'm here I'm searching for his grave
Somewhere here among

When I come to this far where he's sleeping
I know it will cause more heartaches inside
But I long to be by his side once more and tell him
Tell him that I love him and will until I die
Somewhere here among
