Today
Our sons and daughters are coming home
Too many lives lost
4484
4484
Too many lives changed
Forever
Put down your arms
Open your arms
Mothers
Hug
Your sons
Your daughters
Wives & Husbands
Hug
Your returning soldiers
Brave
Tired
Made in America
Today is a good day
The year is winding down
Let us rewind the clock
Change the calendar
Yes, today is a good day indeed. At last they are ALL coming home. (Whether or not we have had 'ours' there, it is a glorious day.)
