Take the Time

Did you ever take the time
A moment or more (Yeah)
To stop and thank the ones we left behind
On some foreign shore
To hear from no more

I can picture one of many boys
Very brave and so alone
Giving up the life that he enjoys
Protecting what he has back home

Did you ever take the time
A moment or more (Yeah)
To stop and thank the ones we left behind
On some foreign shore
To hear from no more

Don't you wish that you could do your part
For this country proud and tall
If we don't finish what we did not start
There'll be no country left at all

This country that we're living in
Knows only that we've got to win
No matter what the cost may be
Our loss is keeping you and me
Free

So now we gotta stop and take the time
A moment or more (Yeah)
To stop and thank the ones we left behind
On some foreign shore
To hear from no more
To hear from no more
To hear from no more
To hear from no more
To hear from no more
To hear from no more
