TOGETHER

They flew together, in the tall blue sky

They fought together, with boms and guns

They ate together, in the squadron mess

They danced together, to the old grammophone

They walked together, in the fields of Suffolk

They talked together, of home and tomorrow

They flew together, in the tall blue sky

They were killed together, and now rest here, together
