Grand Jury: Golden Years



Golden Years

Lyrics by Dawn Sinclair


remember the golden years
when we two were still young
our hearts full and passionate
our lives just begun
we’d stand up for our beliefs
and fight now and then


do you ever forget the tears
or regret golden years

two children in ragged clothes
but proud of our names
we shouldered the centuries
of our country’s war games
our heroes were warriors
their deeds were their fame


do you ever forget the tears
or regret golden years


I remember your face so well
and the look that you wore
your eyes were like shards of steel
from the pain that they saw
our lips hardly ever smiled
though we never felt poor

do you ever forget the tears
or regret golden years
