I Cry

For those who have served
and died for our freedom
I cry.

For those who's families 
have suffered a lose 
I cry.

For those who left 
thier children alone
I cry. 

For those who lost
thier mothers, fathers,
sons and daughters
I cry.

As I salute you for your bravery
tears I will cry from sorrow
You shall never be forgotten
for tears I will cry tomorrow.
