Verse 1:
                                           
	Come here and look through the window Marie
                                           
	Open up the shutters,tell me what you see
                                            
	Was that his knock that i heard at the door
                                               
	Or is it six white horses coming down the road


Verse 2:
                                               
	Come here and touch me and say that it's alright
                                                   
	You know that to my eyes the days are as the nights
                                                    
	Read again the letter that tells me where he's gone
                                             
	To hell with the fighting i want my son home


Verse 3:
                                                  
	I taught him to fish and i taught him to be strong
                                            
	I taught him that killing any man was wrong
                                                  
	But tommorrow in battle i'd run to where he stood
                                             
	If the help of a blind man would do any good

Verse 4:(a tone higher)
                                       
	Last night i went to his room for awhile
                                                    
	I've touched all the things that he used as a child
                                         
	I rocked the cradle where he used to lay
                                            
	I found his tin soldiers and threw them away


Verse 5:(idem)
                                         
	Come here and look through the window Marie
                                          
	Open up the shutters,tell me what you see
                                            
	Was that his knock that i heard at the door
                                            
	Or is it six white horses coming up the road
