WHEN YOU COMIN' HOME, DADDY?QUANDO TORNI A CASA, PAPÀ?
  
Daddy went off to fly an airplaneBabbo se ne è andato sul suo aereo
in a long-ago war..in una guerra tanto fa..
There wasn't any confusionAveva le idee chiare
He knew what he was fightin' forsapeva per cosa combatteva,
Figured he was protectin'sicuro di proteggere
His wife and family..moglie e figli
Fighting for our freedomcombatteva per la nostra libertà
And for democracy.e democrazia.
  
When you comin' home, Daddy?Quando tornerai a casa, papà?
Will I see you soon?Ti rivedrò presto?
You've never said goodbye, Daddy...Non ci hai mai detto addio, papà..
Is that your face on the moon?È il tuo volto sulla luna?
  
I grew up with your pictureSono cresciuta col tuo ritratto
hangin' on my wall..appeso al muro..
Sometimes I cried and wonderedAlle volte ho pianto e mi sono chiesta
If you were alive at all.se tu fossi proprio ancora vivo..
I couldn't take not knowin'Non avrei potuto sopportare non sapere,
Waiting is the hardest part.l'attesa è la parte più difficile..
It takes so long mendingCi vuole tanto a confortare
A sad and broken heart.un cuore triste e a pezzi.
  
When you comin' home, Daddy?Quando tornerai a casa, Papà?
Are you really gone?Sei veramente morto?
I think of you and cry, DaddyPenso a te e piango, papà..
It's so hard to go on – wo-oahÈ tanto duro andare avanti – oh
When you comin' home, Daddy?-Quando tornerai a casa, papà?
Will I see you soon?Ti rivedrò presto?
You never said goodbye, DaddyMai ci dicesti addio, papà..
Is that your face... in the moon?È il tuo viso… nella luna?
