Wind Whispers Your Name
As the Iraq and Afghanistan wars linger, some gave all, many gave some, and most of the rest of us have given very little. In honor of all of those who have worn the uniform for all of us, and for the holes they leave behind.

Verse 1
There's a hole in the sky, where the sun streams through
as the storm gives way to its flame
where thunder and tears have soaked green earth
and the wind still whispers your name
Verse 2
There's a hole in the choir, where your voice once rang
but the melody sustains
in God’s Great House, the notes linger on
while the wind still whispers your name
Verse 3
There's a hole in the flag, two boots turned back
twenty one guns of honor and pain
a purple heart and a silver star
but the wind still whispers your name
Verse 4
And a whole world grieves, in the gathering night
a mother's loss is the angel's gain
and a new star gleams, and flickers to life
while the wind still whispers your name
while the wind still whispers your name
