Better life
For Crown and for the country
For peace and for democracy
All for a better life
They stepped into the unknown
They left their families behind
All for a better life
Dreams were shattered, people lost.
The result was at a human cost.
All for a better life
Fields without a crop to show
Fields where man did drop
All for a better life
White stones to remember
White stones for respect
All for a better life
The tears we've shed
The Poppy's we wear
We thank you for a better life
Thinking of my great grandad today. A driver during WW1. RIP Leonard William Hughes. Royal signals 1912/1916.
