Remember Me.
I watched you marching past today,
November light your hair showed grey
Children called as they ran alongside,
I saw the pride in your wife’s brown eyes.
The years are long and the ground is cold,
I watch you march with the old and bold,
Remember me, remember me.
Do you remember me?
You’re happy now as you march on by.
You promised to return I saw the lie.
You loved me then, do you love me now?
True brothers bound in blood and war
The years are long and the ground is cold,
I watch you march with the old and bold,
Remember me, remember me.
Do you remember me?
You held me tight - the blood still flowed,
I died you left me by the road.
Our medals worn with pride attest,
To heroes who fought with the best.
The years are long and the ground is cold,
I watch you march with the old and bold,
Remember me, remember me.
Do you remember?
