歌词
[Western Guitar Intro]
[Verse]
In the quiet of the dawn's first light
A mother weeps for her boys tonight
Three stars once bright on her breast
Now shadows in the West
[Verse]
Each one wore gray, marched under the pines
Swept away in the rage of lines
Their laughter lost in the cannon's roar
Left her heart forever sore
[Pre-Chorus]
The battles rage, yet at what cost
In the silence, her soul feels lost
[Sad Powerful Catchy Chorus]
Oh mother, cry for the young
Lost in the echoes that war has sung
Oh mother, hold your memories near
For every tear reflects their years
[Verse]
Their letters home, now worn and old
Tales of bravery, fears untold
In fields where brothers’ blood did blend
She prays it wasn't all pretend
[Verse]
The war took more than it could give
In her dreams, her sons still live
Ghosts at the table, ghosts at the door
A mother's heart in the depths of war
[Pre-Chorus]
The battles rage, yet at what cost
In the silence, her soul feels lost
[Sad Powerful Catchy Chorus]
Oh mother, cry for the young
Lost in the echoes that war has sung
Oh mother, hold your memories near
For every tear reflects their years
[Verse]
Spring returns with blooms so fair
But their scent can't ease her despair
Her home, once filled with youthful glee
Now shadows drift where laughter should be
[Verse]
The Sunday bells toll soft and slow
For the boys who'll never grow old
She lays flowers on the graves, in the quiet shade
Whispered prayers for peace, forever prayed
[Sad Western Guitar Solo]
[Sad Powerful Catchy Chorus]
Oh mother, cry for the young
Lost in the echoes that war has sung
Oh mother, hold your memories near
For every tear reflects their years
[Outro]
Three crosses stand upon the hill
Her boys at rest, the world is still
Underneath the old oak tree
Whispers of what will never be
Oh mother, hold your memories near
For every tear reflects their years
Oh mother, hold your memories near
For every tear reflects their years
