Remember those families,
Who received that knock.
Remember those families,
Who fainted at the thought.
Remember...
Remember those soldiers,
Who went out to war, to battle for their country.
Remember those soldiers,
Who heard their last command...
Long before the battle was over.
Remember...
Remember those warbrides,
Who were married overseas
Who traveled back to North America...
To find nobody...
Remember...
Remember those triumphs,
When those troops returned.
Remember the bursts of joy,
When it was the troops themselves, that knocked on that door.
Remember.
Remember the respect,
We now have, years later,
Remember the PRIDE,
When we think back...
Remember.
