There's a White Cross Tonight on Okinawa
Under skies of blue worldly cares are through
High above waves the old Star-Spangled Banner
In his mem-o-ry she'll be true
Some mother's heart knows full sorrow
Silently her prayers cross the foam
There's a White Cross Tonight on Okinawa
And a gold star in some mother'
There's a White Cross Tonight on Okinawa
Under skies of blue worldly cares are through
High above waves the old Star-Spangled Banner
In his mem-o-ry she'll be true
Some mother's heart knows full sorrow
Silently her prayers cross the foam
There's a White Cross Tonight on Okinawa
And a gold star in some mother's home
