Dont Forget My Name

Lyrics

To part I know is bitter sweet,
to leave this war-torn land,
but the lord my maker,I have to meet,
as he takes my lowly hand.

Dont cry my love,dont cry for me,
the tears are all for you,
though my eyes no longer see the world,
my spirit is brand new.

Dont cry my love,dont cry for me,
the tears are all for you,
though my eyes no longer see the world,
my spirit is brand new.

Talking voice

I remember fondly your smile,so soft and sweet,
and the way we kissed and held each others hands.
The plans we made of a future yet to come.
What now my love, I ask, what now?

singing

Remember me as I was then, when we were so in love,
These words I’ll write with earthly pen,
Then wait for you above.
The years may pass and come and go,
you’ll find true love again,
some pain and sorrow you may know,
but don’t forget my name.

Oh don’t forget, have no regrets,
please don’t forget my name,
some pain and sorrow you may know
but don’t forget my name.

Talking

The sounds of battle have long gone,
and my comrades surround me,
I feel my life slipping away,
as I am engulfed by darkness.
I know I will not see another day,
but I will carry your image with me to eternity.

Singing

The years may pass and come and go,
you’ll find true love again,
some pain and sorrow you may know,
but don’t forget my name.

please don’t forget my name.
