For American Soldiers

by ashley   Jan 5, 2005


To All the Soldiers Fighting for The Land We Love…

Leaving the places you know,
To fight for what you believe,
You want to defend your home,
But you also don’t want to leave…

They’re sending you overseas
Where for your country you will fight,
For the peoples freedom and our flag,
And everything we believe is right…

The red, white, and blue,
Are the colors for which you stand,
For the fifty stars and thirteen stripes,
Representing your homeland…

The peace at home is disrupted,
And now you have to go away,
But remember that we miss you,
And think about you every day…

You stand ever so brave,
And for us you fight,
Through the burning, hot day,
And the freezing, cold night…

Our men overseas,
Keeping us protected,
Walk through a land,
Where we are not accepted…

Only your will,
Will drive you on,
Through the war,
From dusk ‘til dawn…

Just come back soon,
And be with us again,
We pray that this war,
Will soon come to an end…
