Friends Are
Forever.........(written
by Billy Little)
My mind is wandering back To when we were boys All through our childhood We shared our toys
We grew up together Never were we apart We were like twins Sharing the same heart
When we left school We shared the same job We enlisted in the army We joined the same mob
We trained side by side We went through the pain We grew from boys to men We would never be the same
Then off to Northern Ireland Like the three tours before To protect the vulnerable people From this mindless civil war
Patrolling the streets of Belfast Or the countryside of Armagh We were protecting each other Never ever straying too far
I still remember that morning It`s implanted in my mind How did I miss that wire Why, oh why was I blind
Now after all these years Each one comes and goes Never will I forget you As on your grave I place a rose

Haunted
Memories
…..(written
by Billy Little)
If I was to put my arms around him If I was to hold him close to me Would the images from his past, go away Would they just let him be?
Would they all vanish if I kissed him Would they go if I enveloped him with love Would all of his nightmares disappear If I promised to pray to the God above?
Now the war`s from the past come to haunt him Whilst he his in the dead of night They`re leading him into the battle Where he learnt to put up a fight
His screaming echoes throughout the darkness His mind is wandering back in time again He`s back into a world only he knows of Back to the sorrow that just won`t end
If my love could bring him back to me If I only knew the right words to say Would it bring him back from the dark, cold Shadows … Into the bright light of the day?
What are these forces that plague his mind Why are they taking all his reality away What are these forces that steal his dreams Why does he have haunted memories of yesterday? …. ...................................... |

Letter from Home…..(written
by Billy Little)
I come back in from patrol I throw my webbing on the floor I put my weapon in my locker My body is aching, tired and sore
The tears are filling in my eyes Upon my bedside table A letter from you, what a nice surprise
I open the letter, I smell your scent I read it for the umpteenth time I still can`t believe its over You no longer want to be mine
I`m thousands of miles away I need to hold you near You`re having another mans child I read it again and wipe away a tear
It had been so long, since your last letter And now I know the reason why I will love you always and forever Within my heart and my soul, goodbye
They knocked on her door to break the news That her husband had taken his own life She knew he could not live without her Knowing, she no longer wanted to be his wife ......................................
