I had always thought this song was about friends of the songwriter who were killed in war. Normal guys who went to war and they died young. This songs real meaning is about Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy This song always brings me to tears, people who fought to make this world a better place for you and me.
