Vietnam Is Now a Memory
Vietnam is now a memory
A story of the past
Simplicity is no more an ending
Yet to have life is our sacred gift
Vietnam is now a memory
Many scars we bear to show
What glowing smiles will you find?
Amongst the rubble of our homes
Vietnam is now a memory
I stand by the old memorials
I saw my Father’s grave in woe
What tears I have to show!
Vietnam is now a memory
Blood has covered our only hopes
Vietnam is now a memory
And now were all alone!
