Viewing lyrics for Columns of Stone (Old Mix) by Pont des Arts.

Verse 1

I remember her there,
With the sun in her hair
A powder blue sky up above
It’s the picture I carry right next to my heart
In my pocket a lock of her hair

Chorus

In the end, each man rests alone
Row upon row upon row
Remember my comrades, my friends and the foe
All buried ‘neath columns of stone

Verse 2

We raise up the flag as we shoot through the haze
Sing to bravery, glory and pain
But the banners are tattered
And glory a matter of living just one extra day

Chorus

My dear there’s nothing here
But blood and death and the fear
Remember my comrades, my friends and the foe
All buried ‘neath columns of stone

Verse 3

When there’s nothing to fight for
To lose or to die for
Perhaps, I’ll make my way home
But the distance from here spans fields soaked with tears
I fear there may be no return

Chorus

In the end, each man rests alone
Row upon row upon row
Remember my comrades, my friends and the foe
All buried ‘neath columns of stone

Verse 4

I dream of her there, with the sun in her hair
A powder blue sky up above
But even my dreams, are shattered it seems
By the rolling thunder of guns

Chorus

My dear there’s nothing here
But blood and death and the fear
Remember my comrades, my friends and the foe
All buried ‘neath columns of stone

My son and I are both veterans, which is really not a big deal, but we'll be at the Iowa game together...our first game together since he enlisted 8 years ago. Can't wait. We'll be the loud, proud, standing most of the time duo in the North/West corner of the stadium.

!!!!!!!! GO BIG RED !!!!!!!!​
 
The spirit of a veteran, selfless service and taking one for the team...

On this special Veteran's Day edition of WOF, this lady purposefully throws the last round to ensure her fellow veterans go home with some money too
