Текст песни: Tailgunner of the Flying Fortress + перевод

Filipo you gotta hold the gates

I’ve come half around the world

with a promise to fulfill

It’s pouring and the hour is growing late

The sun behind the hill less than two hours to kill

So help me weave my way among these stones

I’ve got family to see I’d rather not be alone

I printed out his picture for his grave

They all said growin' up they could see him in my face

Tailgunner of the Flying Fortress

I’ll pay my respects when I’m first in Florence

I’ll bring your banners to wave, we’ll pour wine on top of your grave

Tailgunner, it’s me that you saved

I carried here his last letters home,

sent 3 days before he flew he was younger than my son

This moment seems the slightest bit surreal

There isn’t much to say I’m not quite sure how to feel

A bugle in the distance calls out taps

and Filipo he turns asks me to fold the flag

And bidding all you brave young men adieu

Let your dreams live in me, I swear I’ll see them through

Tailgunner of the Flying Fortress

I’ll pay my respects when I’m first in Florence

I’ll bring your banners to wave, we’ll pour wine on top of your grave

Tailgunner, it’s me that you saved
