A flower tells a simple story
|
It speaks of lives forever changed
|
In a thousand nameless faces
|
And a thousand faceless names
|
A gift from generations lost
|
To those who still survive
|
For this flower tells a story
|
For the ones who gave without demand
|
For the years they served in a distant land
|
Their finest hour they gave
|
The sacrifice they made for us
|
We thank them
|
|
A flower tells of lights dimmed early
|
Of a star burned out too young
|
A story of a hero
|
Too often left unsung
|
This tale from generations lost
|
To those who still survive
|
For a flower tells a story
|
For the life you gave without demand
|
For the years you served in a distant land
|
Your finest hour you gave
|
The sacrifice you made for us
|
The sacrifice
|
I thank you for the gift to us
|
The greatest there can be
|
Your courage when you fought for liberty
|
|
For the life you gave without demand
|
The ones who saved this land
|
Your finest hour you gave,
|
The sacrifice you made for us
|
Your sacrifice
|
We thank you
|
Thank you
