• Silver Medals And Sweet Memories

Just a picture on a table, just some letters Mama saved
& a costume brooch from England that has on the back engraved
"To Eileen, I love you, London, 1943"
But she never heard from him again, & he never heard of me

CHORUS:
& the war still ain't over for Mama
Every night in her dreams she still sees
The young face of someone who brought her
Silver medals & sweet memories

Verse 2:
In Mama's bedroom closet, to this day on her top shelf
There's a flag folded 3-cornered, layin' by itself
The sergeant would surely be honored to know how pretty she still is
& after all these lonely years, his Eileen still lives

(chorus, then repeat its last line)
