Normandy
I stand looking out to the sea
But in my mind Normandy is just a memory
Of an early morning that day in June
We said a prayer and faced our doom
So many were lost that day
Those memories will never fade away
From the water to the beach to the wall
Never stopping to help the comrades who did fall
They call us heroes for what we did
We weren’t heroes we were just kids
We’re the lucky ones who are here to tell the story
Of the true heroes who deserve the honor and glory
And for all those who were lost that day
We’ll remember you always and in all our hearts you’ll stay
Dedicated to the US Army Rangers
And my Uncle Staff Sergeant Michael Mazzullo 101 Airborne Rangers 5th
Battalion Company C
