Taps

When you hear the bugler's call say a silent prayer. For those who've fallen, friend or foe, never to fight again. Twenty-four somber notes, played at the end of time Bow your heads, remove your hats, cover your hearts, thank your stars Some left too short of this world, guarding those who don't remember Some left, a long and prosperous life, always in our hearts When you hear the bugler's call say a silent prayer.
