Aaron Lines - Somebody's Son Lyrics






I was watching the news tonight
Anchorman said there was a fight
And a young man died from his wounds
They showed pictures of the battle
And I almost turned the channel
Like I always seem to do
Then it hit me like a freight train coming through

That’s somebody’s son,
Somebody’s husband,
Somebody’s everything,
Out there someone’s coming undone
It made me wonder if anyone really wins
When every war has to be won
With somebody’s son

I walked down the hall to check
On my youngest lying in bed
And I stood there watching him dream
I tried but I couldn’t imagine how we would feel if something happened
And I didn’t have him here with me
Then I cried for that dead boy and his family

He’s somebody’s son,
Somebody’s husband,
Somebody’s everything,
Out there someone’s coming undone.
It made me wonder if anyone really wins
When every war has to be won
He’s somebody’s son

Somebody’s son,
Somebody’s husband,
Somebody’s everything.
Out there someone’s coming undone.
It made me wonder if anyone really wins
When every war has to be won
With somebody's son

  26. S.... ....

    @bas776 actually it wasnt the taliban that attacked on 9/11. it was al queda. Bottom line, they are both cowards, terrorists, and if they wana die "so they can have 72 virgins" then i say lets help'm out and get them there nice a quick. Then our boyz can come home and those terrorists can burn in hell. God Bless the Canadian, US, Brit, and all the coalition forces fighting for a better future, without fear and terror.

  27. S.... ....

    @mrcanadiansoldier do your job then come home soldier. Good luck out there, and watch your six....

  28. p.... ....

    Great song-well done Aaron! You've managed to say so much for so many of us!

  29. d.... s....

    when i went to afghanistan i always listened to this song with the boys and we would always say hey somebody might now live today and almost everyday somebody didnt live
    i love you brothers and sisters in the armed forces and you know what we are winning this war and i dont think anyone in this world can tell me different i go back in november and i dont plan on coming home but thats fine cause this is my country and ill die for it

  30. T.... ....

    There shouldn't even be troops from Canada, USA, or any other of the Countries that are over there. They aren't there because they are terrorists, its all about money, they are over there trying to control the amount of oil that is produced because the world's supply is coming to an end and they want to preserve it for as long as they can. Its not right, people are dying, innocent people, over there everyday. ITS NOT RIGHT!!

  31. B.... ....

    war is wrong! the end!

  32. B.... ....

    no not really. sombody still dies. either way, its wrong

  33. M.... M....

    Why on earth would you bring imported materialistic items from china into the relevant picture of soldiers sacrafising their lives for your freedom? Especially your reference to US items, considering Aaron Lines is Canadian and writes his songs accordingly. Get your IQ checked john1ooooo.

  34. j.... i....

    why ant all the amn countries just get alone and help each other and china owns the US eveything we use comes from over seas and thats a fact

  35. f.... ....

    becuase fighting wars has been a mans job ever since man has grown to hate his fellow man. the majority of soldiers are men

  36. f.... ....

    go fuck yourself

  37. B.... ....

    i have been asking that same question ever since i first learned what war was. In my entire life, no one has been able to give me a decent answer. The bibe says thou shall not kill. The law says not to commit murder. What makes killing someone in a war different from killing someone in your home country?

  38. f.... ....

    no what i have to say about that...get the fuck out of the way of my bullets next time you getting a bill for the lead i wasted on you

  39. C.... B....

    I'm sorry

  40. j.... ....

    seen him in concert !!!!!!!

    very good singer

  41. B.... D....

    Why don't they write and sing songs about our fellow female soldiers?

    We give support and love to all male soldiers through songs but where are the ones about our women?

  42. C.... D....

    i wonder why people don't like country music when they can be so true, sad and beautiful

  43. B.... ....

    hey dont worry about being ashamed, i also was going to join up with the forces but i am not mentally prepared to take on the responsibility, so dont worry about it just support your friend and stand behind him and give him support and you will be helping him out a lot, plus if you can always work out to get the strength needed then you can go and joina nd help out your friend, ok buddy?

  44. x.... ....

    this song is amaziing < 3

  45. f.... ....

    great song. hey tjvgriffy i just had a couple of friends come back from afgan. a few weeks ago and they are just wanting to go back. I told them that they must have balls to go back. they said "its not about having courage to go back, its about being with your buddies and making sure that they come home." you also have no reason to be ashamed man for not going. just show your support to our boys out there and never forget.

  46. D.... ....

    Hey, I know what you mean. I'm in almost the same sitation, except that i'm going with my friend. Some people feel they are meant to do that kind of job/career. BTW, where are you from?

  47. L.... ....

    this is the best song in the world, my family knows what it feels like to lose someone so close, to lose their everything. He may have only been my cousin, but in more ways then one, he was like an older brother. I miss him more and more with each passing day. The world lost a speacial person July 23, 2003. It's been 5 years, and the hurting and the pain still isn't gone. I pray for you every night, I pray for your beautiful 5 year old son, and your wonderful wife. Rest In Peace, and I love you.

  48. T.... ....

    Wow... absalutly wonderful song. I hope i'll get to serve my country someday and when that day comes i'll be somebodies daughter over there.
    Great tribute to our canadian heroes and not just to the canadian soldiers but to all the soldiers we fight along side with in that desert waste land.

  49. p.... ....

  50. P.... ....

    if the us had normale politicans,this miracles wouldn't be necessary

  51. b.... ....
