New Order "Love Vigilantes" Download mp3 | Purchase |
I want to see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I’ve got to go home
I’ve been so alone, you see
You just can’t believe
The joy I did receive
When I finally got my leave
And I was going home
Oh I flew through the sky
My convictions could not lie
For my country I would die
And I will see it soon
I want to see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I’ve got to go home
I’ve been so alone, you see
When I walked through the door
My wife she lay upon the floor
And with tears her eyes were sore
I did not know why
Then I looked into her hand
And I saw the telegram
That said that I was a brave, brave man
But that I was dead
I want to see my family
My wife and child waiting for me
I’ve got to go home
I’ve been so alone, you see
I remember the first time I heard this song. I had just come home from Desert Storm or some time shortly thereafter. I only heard it on the radio once, and did not know who sang it. I never forgot the chourus, and found this through google! The simplicity of it is deceiving. The song touched me greatly and personaly, though I think it is intended as a protest.

Posted by: Rodrigo Dalcin at October 30, 2005 10:47 AMHi Mate! Wanted to say 'thank you' too. As you probably know, New Order was a massive hit in Germany. I'm a Peruvian music crave and at the time I had a very beautiful German girlfriend. We both lived in Lima and we used to enjoy the band's tunes. Great times...
