Memorial Day ✰ The Soldier Song ✰ Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds

*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰*✰
Another day or so
He'd be one year older
God bless his soul
Nearly 18 years old
When he became a soldier
God bless his soul
✰
It's not like he didn't know
The way that things could go
Hope was all he had to cope
But he never made it home
✰
I hope and pray
That when God called his name
✰ He did not die in vain ✰
I'd like to think he died for you and me
✰
And I hope one day
When we look back again
And he's just a memory
That we'll appreciate
Respect the life he gave
✰
In another year or so
She might have been a mother
God bless her soul
But she'll never get to hold
Her baby girl, or know her
God bless their souls
✰
It's not like she didn't know
The way that things could go
Hope was all she had to cope
But she never made it home
✰
I hope and pray
That when God called her name
✰ She did not die in vain ✰
I'd like to think she died for you and me
✰
And I hope one day
When we look back again
And she's just a memory
That we'll appreciate
Respect the life she gave
And I hope and pray
That when God called their name
That they did not die in vain
I'd like to think
They died for you and me
✰
And I hope one day
When we look back again
And they're just a memory
That we'll appreciate
Respect the life they gave
✰
Respect the life they gave
✰
✰ RESPECT THE LIFE THEY GAVE ✰
✰
GOD BLESS
