Standing there looking,
All the names on the wall,
So many have died,
So we wouldn't fall,
They fought for their children,
For their husbands or wives,
They fought for their families,
They fought for our rights,
They fought for our freedom,
For our country and all,
While we waited for that heartbreaking call.

For all the veterans who've died,
To save our very lives,
You'd think they'd be remembered,
for their courageous sacrifices,
Some are forgotten so we've biult that wall,
So none are ever forgotten,
And we remember them all.
