Oh Soldier Lost In War

Oh soldier at war
You’re just so far
Those letters, I still hold
For the story that they told

Oh soldier that I love
You were sent from above
I long to see your eyes
Do you cry for every friend that dies?

Oh soldier what happened to your letters?
My heart is heavy, or is it like feathers?
Why do you never write?
Is this battle a hard one to fight?

Oh soldier now that is gone
I knew it along
This love was to great
It was only fate

Oh soldier buried in the ground
What is there to be found?
My heart was buried with yours
All is closed, all those doors

Oh soldier do you think of me still?
My heart never did it heal
It still sings for your soul
It longs to be whole

Oh soldier lost in war
I still have all those letters and more
My children are grown and far away
Now I grow lonelier everyday

Oh soldier who’s love is wine
It was so sweet and so fine
Never will I forget the days I was in your arms
Where al the world faded with its harms
