Watch Gabrielle
|
She's something to see
|
She's courageous and says
|
What she truly believes
|
Let's go to the Safeway
|
And start the new year
|
Listening there's something
|
I long to hear
|
|
So she stood on the corner in the bright winter sun
|
Like a flag in the perilous fight
|
And the man in the parking lot drew out his gun
|
And shot an American light
|
|
Now we are flying at half mast
|
And we are crying for our past
|
As a great nation dies
|
And we can't recognize
|
What's become of our lives
|
Baby we're losing freedom fast
|
|
Christina Taylor
|
Born on a day
|
When even the atheists
|
Knelt down to pray
|
|
And the salt of the earth cried out in pain
|
As the bullet went into her heart
|
And our soldiers and sailors have all died in vain
|
If a madman tears our country apart
|
|
Now we are flying at half mast
|
And we are crying for our past
|
As a great nation dies
|
And we can't recognize
|
What's become of our lives
|
Yes we are losing freedom fast
|
|
As we are falling from our hight
|
Liberty's calling us to fight
|
For the stripes and the stars
|
As we gain battle scars
|
'Til we know who we are
|
America full mast
|
New flight
|
