Default Tribute song to men of Bomber Command

Australian singer/song writer Grant Luhrs has written and recorded a song dedicated to the men of Bomber Command titled 'Full Moon Tonight'.
The song is now on the interweb and someone more knowledgeable than myself may be able to post a link.
Meanwhile, here are the words.

The faces I've seen are a passing illusion
Of men on a journey to kill or to die
Can't help the feeling that we all know
Some of us won't be coming home.

A full moon tonight, a full moon tonight
Lord fly with me and bring me home
Never thought the moonlight would scare me so
Fly with me Lord and bring me home.

New faces come and old ones go
Til no one knows anyone any more
They pack your bags and send them home
The morning after you lose your war

A full moon tonight etc

For men must fall it matters not when
Time will always win in the end
The vision remains of youth in its prime
And ghosts will never grow old with time

A full moon tonight etc


Lest We Forget

David
