She said, "Lord my boy was special And he meant so much to me"
And oh I'd love to see him Just one more time you see
All I have are the memories And moments to recall
So Lord could you tell him He's more than a name on a wall"
She said, "He really missed the family And being home on Christmas day"
And he died for God and country In a place so far away
I remember just a little boy Playing a war since he was three
But Lord this time I know He's not coming home to me
She said, "Lord my boy was special And he meant so much to me"
And oh 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
