Their Memories Must Live On R Duncan
Their Memories Must Live On.
It was so long ago, but it was only yesterday,
They fought for freedom, those young soldiers
Who are now, the fragile old men of today
Their bravery was without question
With their lives, the cost that some would pay
It was a price they knew would come
Tomorrow, if not this day
They marched into the battlefield, to the beating of the drum
As the pipers played their marching tunes
Towards the enemy, they would walk
They would nervously glance towards each other
Most were just too scared to talk
But they knew how to follow orders, to do as they were told
That’s the way that they were trained
Going bravely forward, through the mud and cold
While on top of them the deadly bombardment rained
The battle is still going on, all the death, and all the gory
The screams, the fears haunt them still, the pain that is our debt
So we must listen their voices, listen to their story
Never to let those memories die, take heed, lest we forget.
