Memories Down the Line - Kansas

First

We should call a truce

This time

Forgetting all we left behind

Stow

Everything we know

Along

Through your father’s eyes, your mother’s smile

Send these memories down the line

For future generations

Send these memories down the line

And let them know we tried

Lessons locked inside

For them to find

Send these memories down the line

They gave

All they tried to save

From themselves

With remedies, from history

Pride

All the things they tried

That never worked

Experiences hold the key

Send these memories down the line

Our trials and tribulations

Send these memories down the line

And let them know we tried

Lessons locked inside

For them to find

Send these memories down the line

Send these memories down the line

For future generations

Send these memories down the line

Lessons locked inside

Give them a fighting chance

To know that we tried

Send these memories down the line

Down the line

Down the line

Down the line
