The Petersens - More Than A Name On A Wall

Chorus / Description : She said, Lord my boy was special
All I have are my mem'ries
An' the moments to recall
So Lord would you tell him
He's more than a name on a wall

More Than A Name On A Wall Lyrics

I saw her from a distance
As she walked up to the wall
In her hand she held some flowers
As her tears began to fall

She took out pen an' paper
As to trace her memory
She looked up to heaven
An' the words she said were these

She said, Lord my boy was special
An' he meant so much to me
You know I'd love to see him
Just one more time you see

All I have are my mem'ries
An' the moments to recall
So Lord would you tell him
He's more than a name on a wall

She said, he really missed his family
An' bein' home on Christmas Day
But he died for God an' country
In a place so far away

I remember just a little boy
Playin' war since he was three
But Lord this time I know
He's not comin' home to me

She said, Lord my boy was special
An' he meant so much to me
You know I'd love to see him
But I know it just can't be

So I thank you for my mem'ries
An' the moments to recall
So Lord would you tell him
He's more than a name on a wall

Oh Lord would you tell him
He's more than a name on a wall
