Arlington

Walk softly on this sacred ground
Where American heroes can be found
Resting now after hard battles fought
Paid with their lives for freedom sought
Young men who gave their ultimate best
From north, south, east and west
Side by side row by row
Throughout the years their numbers grow
Spiritual brothers with a special bond
No words spoken to respond
Listen to the gentle breeze
Watch a soldier fall to his knees
Wishing he was in the grave
He’d gladly take his brother’s place
For his country, for me and you
Brave heroes died for red white and blue
