A MOTHER IS WAITING

The call to arms sounds through the night,
A new war has begun.
Stealing from her aching arms,
Her daughter and her son.
They will fight for peace and liberty,
With their heads held high.
"We'll do our very best to save this land!",
Is now their battle cry.
She's just a girl, her heart cries out,
She needs her here with her.
He's her son, she loves him so,
Why can't they let him be.
But these brave men and women
Must leave their mother's side,
To fight for right and justice,
And do their job with pride.
Love bless you, her dear soldiers,
Her daughter and her son.
A mother's arms are waiting
Until this war is over.
