The Hero's Return Lyrics - Final Cut - Pink Floyd

Jesus, Jesus, what's it all about? 

Trying to clout these little ingrates into shape 

When I was their age all the lights went out 

There was no time to whine and mope about 

And even now part of me flies 

Over Dresden at angels one five 

Though they'll never fathom it 

Behind my sarcasm desperate memories lie 

Sweetheart, sweetheart, are you fast asleep? 

Good 

That's the only time that I can really speak to you 

And there is something that I've locked away 

A memory that is too painful 

To withstand the light of day 

When we came back from the war 

The banners and flags hung on everyone's door 

We danced and we sang in the street 

And the church bells rang

But burning in my heart 

The memory smolders on 

Of the gunners dying words on the intercom
