(Verse 1) The desert wind carries a heavy sound Across the quiet, forgotten ground Where the rivers meet and the shadows fall The echoes of history still softly call A peaceful camp in the valley deep Now holds a silence it has to keep The stories told of a tragic dawn When a tragic moment hurried on. (Chorus) And we don’t know where the graves are laid In the shifting dust where the memories fade But the heart remembers, the spirit knows The weight of the grief that still softly flows To the families healing through all these years We hold your sorrow, we see your tears. (Verse 2) The passage of time can blur the track And we cannot bring the stolen moments back The markers are gone from the sacred earth Where ancestors walked and gave us birth But a missing page in a history book Can't erase the lives that the conflict took Though the valley is still and the skies are blue The ache of the past remains so true. (Chorus) And we don’t know where the graves are laid In the shifting dust where the memories fade But the heart remembers, the spirit knows The weight of the grief that still softly flows To the families healing through all these years We hold your sorrow, we see your tears. (Bridge) May the winds sing a song of peace tonight Underneath the watchful, starlit light Though the earth keeps the secret of where they rest They are never forgotten, forever blessed. (Outro) To the ones who carried the pain so long We offer this moment, we offer this song Though the graves are hidden from our sight Your ancestors shine in the eternal light We hold your hand, we honor the past May peace find its home at last.
