I Dance With The Ghosts. Falklands 1982 Eight

 

I dance with the ghosts

Of those long past

I can’t remember their names

I just know that their time

Far too early they came.

 

I see their souls  still 

Standing proud

As they battled till the end

And I wish I could remember

All their names.

 

As they danced the game of death

I see each one shadily now

And I can’t remember their names

I know they had heads raised high

As they said their goodbyes.

 

Yes I dance with the ghosts

Of those long past.

They knew it wasn’t a game.

I just wish with my heart

I still could recall their names.

 

They never wanted to leave

Never wanted to leave.

So come back walze with me

My long lost ghosts.

Help me remember your names.
