Keswick War Memorial

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

                   Take my hand and come with me 
                          to a special place across the sea
                          a sacred place in hallowed ground 
                    its not a church you'll understand
                          just a part of home in another land
 
                          A place where gravestones stand arrayed
                          like a phantom army on parade           
                    stand close to me and patience keep
                          and soon you'll see a brave man weep
                          he cries for his comrade beneath the stones
                          and I tell you friend he's not alone

                          Scenes like this are commonplace
                          in our special meeting place
                          so as you stroll down memory lane
                          think of us who must remain
                          and now its time to say adieu
                          but remember friend, we died for you

                                                                                             ANON
