Travis John Songtext
von Tracy Grammer

Under a foreign sky, my fate awaits me
There but for God go I, do not forsake me
I am a boy full of promise, full of freedom
Now the joy is dead and done, I am gone


Before the western sea, my home was in the valley
There with my family, I took to manhood early
I was the one my brother called, my mother looked to me
Her fine, strong son
Now the joy is dead and done, I am gone

Finding my way to go, the call that I should answer
My country′s own hero, like music to the dancer
I am a boy full of promise, full of freedom
Now the joy is dead and done, I am gone

Under a weeping willow tree you planted roses
There in my memory where my eternal ghost is
I was a boy full of promise, full of freedom
Now the joy is dead and done, I am gone
Now the joy is dead and done, I am gone
