More Than A Name On A Wall

I saw her from a distance, as she walked up to the wall

In her hand she held some flowers, as her tears began to fall

She took out pen and paper, as a trace her memories

She looked up to heaven, and the words she said were these

Chorus:

She said Lord my boy was special, and he meant so much to me

And though I’d love to see him, just one more time you see

All I have are the memories, and the moments to recall

But Lord could you tell him, he’s more than a name on a wall

She said he really missed the family, and bein home on Christmas day

He died for god and country, in a place so far away

I remember just a little boy, playin’ war since he was three

But Lord this time I know, He’s not comin home to me

Chorus:

She said Lord my boy was special, and he meant so much to me

You know I’d love to see him, but I know it just can’t be

So I thank you for my memories, and the moments to recall

But Lord could you tell him, He’s more than a name on a wall

Lord could you tell him, he’s more than a name on a wall
