If You Wonder Why We Cry
If you wonder why we cry On
November the 11th, an ordinary day,
It is because
our thoughts have drifted
To a battle field far
away.
I ask for your attention while I relate
The
horror of an event that grieves this heart of mine.
I
will praise both man and woman who fought for freedom
In
an age before my time.
For every generation
It
will be an event that cannot be forgot,
For others
gave up their lives so we might live.A freedom that's
ours to give.
The love from these soldiers is a blessing so
disguised,
For it was in bloodshed battle
That
our nation won a unified peace,
Became free - a
gift to those still alive.
Their memory is kept in the living
And
shared in the freedom they were giving,Those soldiers
will never be for forgot.Soldiers who shall be praised
in everlasting thought.
