about

This is a relationship song - Love, Family, World. Not so much a "protest" of war as call to remain ever mindful, and to remind our leaders as well.

lyrics

They Surely Won’t Forget words and music by Darrell Rodgers

Tell me that you love me woman, every day
Tell me that you need me now in every way
Speak to me those words of love I need as much as I can get
So that on some lonely night, I surely won’t forget, I surely won’t forget

Funny how the time, seems to change our mind
Never knowing quite what we’ve got until it’s left behind

Mothers tell your children that you love them so
Tell them every day now tell them as they grow
If you tell them long enough there’ll be no need to fret
When they’re finally on their own, they surely won’t forget, they surely won’t forget

Funny how the time, seems to change our mind
Never knowing quite what we’ve got until it’s left behind

Funny how the time, seems to change our mind
Never knowing quite what we’ve got until it’s left behind

People of the world tell your leaders no more war
Tell them a million times then tell them a million more
We all want peace on earth but that ain’t happened yet
So tell them with your heart and soul so they surely won’t forget,
they surely won’t forget, they surely won’t forget.
