The Names We Hold So Dear
The list gets longer year after year
Of the names we hold so dear.
On this day we long to mourn,
As we celebrate the lives of those
With names we hold so dear.
We channel them in times of need
Whether it's love, happiness, or fear,
Those with names we hold so dear.
To this day, your sacrifice is clear
That you died for those so near.
So let's shift gears and raise our beer
"To those with names we hold so dear!"
