This song is from a country singer George Canyon with the same title, I don't own Medal of Honor or this song wish I did but I don't.
The lonely sound of distant thunder
Stirs my restless sleep
And the dream that I was lost in, slips away
Of a young son and his momma
So innocent back then,
Would she even recognize her boy today?
Joe Griffin woke with a start, the peaceful dream he was having seemed nightmarish now that he realized where he was again, it only served to taunt him, taunt him of home. He shivered slightly; it wasn't dying he was afraid of; it was the thought of never seeing him again.
'Cause I have fallen to the Darkness
And I've spilled blood with these two hands,
And in my heart I wish I could believe
That who I was is who I am
Donny and him had been close since childhood despite the two years age deference his older brother was his best friend, his only friend in times of battle. He hoped against hope that Donny was still alive; Joe would do everything he could to get him back.
I've crossed mountains, hills and valleys,
From sea to shinning sea
Through barren sands and blinding snow
I held my brother as he lay dying beside me in some field
I said a prayer and let him go
He wished he could have done more for his brother he'd wanted to jump straight out of the back of that truck; He would have, but his captain held him back. Joe remembered shooting Japanese through blinded eyes, the tears pouring down as he watched his brother being taken away,
But I have fallen to the darkness,
And I've spilled blood with these two hands
And in my heart I wish I could believe
That who I was is who I am
I'm letting go,
I'm letting go,
Well, I'm letting go
I'm letting go…
