lyrics

Yesterday’s men bear the memories and scars
of campaigns long since fallen from glory
But yesterday’s men cry alone in cold rooms
when the world has forgotten their story
Invisible armies who meet at park benches
Drinking to comrades who never returned
who wander the streets singing songs from the trenches
The ashes of history’s lessons unlearned

Who will remember, who will remember
Who will remember them
Who will remember, who will remember
Yesterday’s Men

Cenotaph ghosts on the November wind
And now as dusk settles their memory fades
For God, Queen and Country and night-shelter hostels
The long hidden shame of your poppy parades
Yesterday’s men have their ribbons and medals
and old photographs of the ones they once loved
Their moment is passing, their names unremembered
Their Empire has fallen and crumbled to dust

Who will remember…
