We have been so blessed...blessed beyond what we may deserve
When people criticize our soldiers...that hits a raw nerve
Some people are ungrateful...they believe that freedom is free
But without those who've sacrificed we'd live in slavery
Byron Norwood's come to symbolize all those men who gave their lives
All the men who never came home to their kids and wives
For their fam'lies their loss created hearts that are filled with pain
And everday we must pray for them...they didn't die in vain
We don't welcome war but sometimes there is not a choice
The brave shout out "I volunteer" with strong and steady voice
The day of their deployment, worried loved ones will wave and sob
A mother hears, "If not me, mom, then who will do this job?"
Byron Norwood's come to symbolize all those men who gave their lives
All the men who never came home to their kids and wives
For their fam'lies their loss created hearts that are filled with pain
And everday we must pray for them...they didn't die in vain

Will read it tonight after I get back from the Fresno State Louisiana Tech BB game.
He died in the attack on Fallujah. His parents were at the SOTU last night.
Did you play the instrument in 'Turn Around'?
I don't understand the question.
The music at the site. Candle in the Wind. Sorry if I'm confusing you. I think I'm starting to confuse myself.
The music at the site is a MIDI file created by I either the owner of the site or another person from whom he borrowed it. I have no musical talent.
So your partner is Hal David and DFU is Burt Bacharach....or do I have this backwards??
