The Ones
The ones who would hold the line
The ones who kept us safe at home
Brave enough to step up to the cause
The ones who went out never alone
The least we can do is take a moment
Remember the past of the ones long ago
The people who never had a future
The ones who are lost where nobody knows
I know what you say, I know what you do
But you can never forget, what they did for you
Chorus
The light in the darkness for our lives
The answer to the crimes of war
We never wanted to see them go
But they would end up saving lives
Freedom fighters in there own right
The heroes of there time
The rescuers of freedom for the world
No man left behind
Run down and left in the cold
Can't even get up to save a life
Staying strong keeping the faith
War always cuts like a knife
I know what you say, I know what you do
But you can never forget, what they did for you
Chorus
The light in the darkness for our lives
The answer to the crimes of war
We never wanted to see them go
But they would end up saving lives
A very moving and solid song that truly reflects the sacrifice and at the same time the horror of war. You captured at the very core our need to always remember what was done and is still being done for us. The Chorus is very poignant . Well done.
