And after all this time why must you be
  Missing in action, missing in action?
  And after all these years why must you be
  Missing in action, missing in action?
  Replacements were sent, the battle went on,
  There were people, did not even notice you'd gone
  Oh, but I did, oh, but I did.
  And after all this time why must you be
  Missing in action, missing in action?
  And after all these years why must you be
  Missing in action, missing in action?
  I know there were times, the sun never shone
  And I know there were times I thought we had won
  Oh well I did, I'll tell you I did.
  Missing in action, missing in action
  Missing in action, missing in action
  Were there too many times, I had my way?
  Were there too many times, you had your say?
  You said we'd be together when the siren sounds
  But I look for you, you're nowhere to be found
  And nobody's seen you in ages...
  And after all this time why must you be
  Missing in action, missing in action?
  And after all these years why must you be
  Missing in action, missing in action
