what are heroes

A frosty window pane
childrens toys and games
diamond smiles on icy xmas lights
shine on the faces of a huddled carol group
thay sing of peace and silent night

A liitle boy that no one knew stud closely by and hung
a line or two there voices echoed through a thousand
years his joy was shattered by the soldiers telling him to
move along and he turned and asked the woman
throgh his tears

Mama what is xmas without war
mama what is xmas without feara
and mama must we live with this distruction all the years
