Semper Fi(delis)

When he came in close beside me he said: "Don't worry, son, I'm here
If Charlie wants to tangle now they'll have two to dodge"
I said: "Well, thanks alot, I told him my name and asked him his
And he said: "The boys just call me Camouflage"
[...]
And it was near the river bank when the ambush came on top of us
And I'd thought it was the end and we were had
Then a bullet with my name on it came buzzin' through a bush
And that big marine, he just swat it with his hands

****

But before he went he said "Semper fi" and said his only wish
Was to save a young marine caught in a barrage...

Cu un ajutor potrivit, de multe ori e chiar uşor să găseşti puterea de a merge înainte... Doar că uneori ajutorul nu apare de la sine; sunt şi momente în care nu trebuie decât să îl cauţi.
