Quote:Take two minutes, would you mind?
It’s a pittance of time
For the boys and the girls who went over
In peace may they rest, may we never forget why they died.
It’s a pittance of time |

Quote:Read the letters and poems of the heroes at home
They have casualties, battles, and fears of their own
There’s a price to be paid if you go, if you stay
Freedom is fought for and won in numerous ways |

Terry Kelly, a Canadian folk singer, wrote this song - A Pittance of Time, this is the chorus and another verse that just means alot to me... You can listen and read the lyrics here:

Quote:
It takes courage to fight in your own war
It takes courage to fight someone else’s war
Our peacekeepers tell of their own living hell
They bring hope to foreign lands that the hatemongers can’t kill. |
