the whispers - p.o.w. - m.i.a. (prisoners of war - missing in action) lyrics

hey have some mercy
we have to do more than pray
for the pows and the mias
we have to the better
better than what we’ve done
we had to bring ‘em home without a war being won

we gotta spread the news
anyway we can
we’ve got to spread the news
let them know exactly where we stand

finally got the news the other day (other day)
to release the pows, find the mias
some men may not be coming home (coming home)
so i dedicate this message to those
who might be left alone

as long as i have a voice to sing
as long as there’s gonna be bells to ring
i’m gonna do my part to help payback the debt
i’m gonna make sure the
whole world will never forget

i’m gonna spread the news
anyway i can
i’m gonna spread the news
to every woman, child and man
must not forget (we must not go)
a thousand lost prisoners of war
the missing in action
we must not forget (we must not go)
a thousand lost prisoners of war
the missing in action

easy to remember yesterday (yesterday)
when you are the hero in the role you play
give the hero’s part to some other guy
(some other guy)
and it really doesn’t make much difference
if he should live or die

but what about the hero of today?
talking ‘bout the pows and the mias
we will not forget them
and leave them in the past
instead we’ll bring ‘em home
to their loved ones at last

say bring them home
anyway you can
you’ve got to bring ‘em home
let ‘em know exactly where we stand
a housewife gets a letter
from across the way
so much tears in her eyes, she couldn’t read it
so i read what it says:

it says, “darling, dear and precious
(please read what it says)
it’s six o’clock as i write this letter to you
just a few words to let you know i’m alright
and that day and night, i still think about you
oh, gotta get up
my turn to face the floor
gotta go find your picture
so i can see your face once more
oh darling, i’ve gotta go now
that’s all i have time to say
but tell your next door neighbours
that their son will be home any day.”

remember, you’ve got to remember, remember
just what happened, remember
you’ve got to remember
what happened, you’ve got to remember
