Silver Medals and Sweet Memories
The Statler Brothers
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Just a picture on a table, just some letters Mama saved And 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, and he never heard of me. And 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 and sweet memories. 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 And after all these lonely years, his Eileen still lives. And 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 and sweet memories. The young face of someone who brought her Silver medals and sweet memories
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
