Lonely fear lights up the sky
Cant help but wonder why
Youre so far away

There, you have to take a stand

In someone elses land
Life can be so strange

I wish we never had to choose
To either win or lose,
That we could find a way

But I wont turn my back again,
Your honor Ill defend
So hurry home,
Till then

Stand tall
Stand proud
Voices that care are crying out loud
And when you close your eyes tonight
Feel in your heart how our love burns bright

Im not here to justify the cause
Or to count up all the loss
Thats all been done before

I just cant let you feel alone
When theres so much love at home
Were sending out to you

And the courage that youve known
The bravery that youve shown
Clearly lights the way

We pray to make the future bright
To make the wrong things right

(rap):

Right or wrong, were all praying youll remain strong
Thats why were all here and singing along

Stand tall
Stand proud
Voices that care are crying out loud
And when you close your eyes tonight
Feel in your heart how our love burns bright

And when you close your eyes tonight
Feel in our heart how our love burns bright

You are the voice,
You are the light

Stand tall
Stand proud
Voices that care are crying out loud
And when you close your eyes tonight
Feel in your heart how our love burns bright

Stand tall
Stand proud
Voices that care are crying out loud
And when you close your eyes tonight
Feel in your heart how our love burns bright

You are the voice and the guiding light
Feel in your heart how our love burns bright

NO problem.....I just remember when this first came out, and my sister was over there.....
It sure was different when people actually cared....

It sure was different when people actually cared....yeah, I wish celebs were doing that right now instead of making anti-war propaganda films. If the war was over, then I'd say go ahead and make them. I mean ever the film makers during Vietnam were smart enough to wait until it was over before making their anti-war films...
Then when you have a celeb who does do something for the troops, it's not picked up by the media. It's really annoying...
My brother was in Desert Storm also...

[FearlessKnight]

Yep, he did. Did your sister?....Thats good to hear....yes she did....thank goodness!

[coolhandjean]

Thats good to hear....yes she did....thank goodness!Happy to hear it. :)...he had a close call once, when he was on the ships. Some of his buddies were taking a helicopter out, and they asked him if he wanted to come along. He thought about it, but something came up, and he couldn't go. That same helicopter crashed that day, and sadly, everyone aboard was lost, so we got lucky that it wasn't his time.
