Where did you go
We need to find you
We need to know
Brave, frightened
Without a clue
You faught for your country
The red, white and blue
Missing in action
Is what they say
But we know better
We will find you one day
Prisoners of war and mia's
You,so young so old
Where are you now
So brave, so bold
Years have gone by without a clue
THE GOVERNMENT SAYS
THEY CARE ABOUT YOU?

If you are able, save them a place inside of you
and save one backward glance when you are leaving
for the places they can no longer go.

Be not ashamed to say you loved them,
though you may or may not have always.

Take what they have left and what they have taught you
with their dying and keep it with your own.

And in that time when men decide and feel safe
to call the war insane,take one moment to embrace
those gentle heroes you left behind.
