WHY DO WE REMEMBER?

 

A minute of silence

never will tell

the reason we remember

a soldier's time in hell

it's not war that we celebrate

nor all of your pain

it is your sacrifice

and those who were slain

it may be sorrow

for those no longer here

it is to say thank you

and our words are sincere

we regret it took war

we regret what it cost

we regret your pain

and all of your loss

but the soldiers we honor

for keeping us free

are heroes to us

and they always will be
