Hero's live on - by Jeff Briggs
This is a small tribute to those who died during WW1
Hero's live on, hero's they die
Never forget where they lie
We lost our family today
We lost our loved ones they say
We lost our lovers, our fathers, our brothers
A sacrifice they had to pay
They died in the Somme for democratic freedom
A generation lost faraway
We shall never forget as they will not grow old
Under the last sunset they lie in fields of gold
Hero's live on, hero's they die
Never forget where they lie
I received a letter today
It came from far away
And I hesitated, ripped open then waited
My hands were shaking with fear
For the words that I read
Simply said he was dead
A letter posted dated last year
We shall never forget as they will not grow old
Under the last sunest they lie in fields of gold
Hero's live on, hero's they die
Never forget where they lie
