The Day Thousands Died

The Day Thousands Died
(C) 2001 words Elizabeth Marquez
music Johnny Marquez

(V1)
I turned on the morning news
To see such horror and dismay
I felt the shock when the towers fell
From three thousand miles away
I fell to my knees and cried
As thousands lost their lives
They were not enemies of the state
They were children, brothers and wives
(C)
The day thousands died
We’ll remember in our hearts
Senseless acts of terror
Have threatened to tear us apart
But united we still stand
As we fly our flag with pride
No one is removed from
The day thousands died
(V2)
I opened up a magazine
To see the horror in print
Personal stories of love and loss
And the heroes angels sent
Tears fell on every page
As my heart was under attack
Knowing that my tears of anger
Wont bring the fallen heroes back
(C)
The day thousands died
We’ll remember in our hearts
Senseless acts of terror
Have threatened to tear us apart
But united we still stand
As we fly our flag with pride
No one is removed from
The day thousands died
(B)
There’s a hole in the skyline
Where towers turned to dust
But what lies underneath
Are lives that held God’s trust
(C)
The day thousands died
We’ll remember in our hearts
Senseless acts of terror
Have threatened to tear us apart
But united we still stand
As we fly our flag with pride
No one is removed from
The day thousands died
(T)
We will never forget
The day thousands died
