[00:09.22]	You joined the army 18 years ago,
[00:13.20]	You've been to Bosnia, Croatia, and Kosovo.
[00:17.44]	And other places, I'd sooner not go,
[00:21.89]	But so far you'd always come home.
[00:27.42]	Your family by now you are not to ask why
[00:31.76]	They all acted brave as you kissed them goodbye
[00:36.22]	And they waved as the plane disappeared in the sky
[00:40.94]	And said 'come home, Ricky, come home"
[00:46.32]	"Ricky come home the fall has arrived “
[00:50.20]	The leaves will be turning,
[00:52.74]	It's getting colder outside,
[00:55.23]	The table of life will be set one more time,
[00:59.69]	So come home, Ricky come home"
[01:04.88]	This wasn't your first time,
[01:07.23]	You've been here before.
[01:09.09]	You were one of the few,
[01:11.50]	Who had come back for more.
[01:13.98]	You knew whatever they call
[01:16.10]	This at home, is war
[01:18.91]	And you knew what was in store.
[01:23.50]	You were caught in an ambush
[01:26.03]	On a Kandahar road.
[01:28.16]	They came out of the blue,
[01:30.15]	And before you could know it,
[01:32.90]	It was raining hot metal,
[01:35.14]	And things that explode,
[01:37.40]	And this time there was no going home.
[01:42.83]	"Ricky come home, the fall has arrived “
[01:47.15]	The leaves will be turning,
[01:49.41]	It's getting colder outside.
[01:51.94]	The table of life will be set one more time,
[01:56.40]	So come home, Ricky come home"
[02:01.36]	On the bridges they stood,
[02:03.80]	And watched you go by.
[02:05.98]	A Canadian flag was waving nearby,
[02:10.53]	And more than a few had a tear in their eye,
[02:15.33]	As they watched you going home.
[02:20.60]	They flew your body, back to St. Johns
[02:24.64]	Back to where you began,
[02:26.57]	Back to where you belong.
[02:29.22]	And the weary heart broke ,
[02:31.74]	When they played that last song,
[02:34.44]	You were home, Ricky, you were home.
[02:38.90]	"Ricky come home, the fall has arrived. “
[02:43.32]	The leaves will be turning,
[02:46.06]	It's getting colder outside,
[02:48.30]	The table of life, will be set one more time,
[02:52.97]	So come home, Ricky come home"
[02:58.36]	The newspapers carried a story or two,
[03:02.83]	A word from your brother, a picture of you.
[03:07.20]	Oh, but life was so busy and there's so much to do,
[03:11.84]	We moved on, yes we moved on.
[03:16.90]	In the corridors of power,
[03:18.94]	They were looking for blame.
[03:21.66]	But that wasn't your star,
[03:23.44]	No it wasn't your game.
[03:25.88]	You'd given your life, for a world gone insane,
[03:30.81]	And traded blood for a home.
[03:35.95]	"Ricky come home the fall has arrived “
[03:40.25]	The leaves will be turning
[03:42.77]	It's getting colder outside
