Tomb Of The Unknown Soldier
A soldier left his wife one day,
To fight a war so far away,
To fight until peace was won,
He thought the war
Would soon be done.
He left his wife,
And said with a smile,
"don't worry I'll be home
In a very short while".
He never knew
It would be his last,
To kiss his wife,
He left so fast.
The war was quick,
He lost it all,
The fighting went on
till the next dawn,
He wanted to stop it all.
By the time the war was won
The fallen soldiers
were finally done,
one hundred thousand
and even more
people were dead
and that was the score.
THe young husband,
that left his love,
was gone to visit
god up above.
His personal body never found,
with flowers blowing,
there came a sound.
A statue to remember them,
all who fought
before the brave young men.
The guns boom,
and the sounds ring out,
The tomb for those
who's families now pout.
We remember them with
a statue of stone.
For all the soldiers still uknown.
All men who fought
and died at last
And those who are now
part of our past.
Through future wars
In many years.
Men and women shed their tears
This statue remembers all of them
The tomb of the unknown soldier
