• Dearest Sarah

Dearest Sarah I'm compelled to write with aching fearful hands

Just in case I never make it back

I left our family weeks ago for battle stricken lands

And I fear I wont survive the next attack

I fled Rhode Island willingly to join the Union force

Understanding I may never know my boys

But this country's strength of government is in a great divorce

And for this I risk my life and all its joys

Oh Sarah I do understand within my sacrifice

Goes nearly every joy for you as well

But I hope you sense within my words

I thought about it twice

But our nation cast a thick momentus spell

Oh Sarah start a life without me

Raise our boys to gentlemen

Thrive until the day you pass away and we can meet again

Understand my inner fight

I didn't choose the war

I sided with democracy

As that is what I'm dying for

Oh Sarah - my love for you is deathless

Oh Sarah - my love for you is deathless

Growing up without my father weighed heavy on my brain

And I dread this makes my children dance that waltz
And I'm sure at times your trust was breaked
And your love for me did wane

But I ask you to forgive me for these faults

And I can't express the irony of the peaceful summer breeze

Dusting my batallion as they rest

'Cause within this evening lies a dark and icy freeze

That whispered me to send you this request

Oh Sarah start a life without me

Raise our boys to gentlemen

Thrive until the day you pass away and we can meet again

Understand my inner fight

I didn't choose the war

I sided with democracy

As that is what I'm dying for

Oh Sarah - but my love for you is deathless

Oh Sarah - it's deathless

I am one of hundred thousand paying all that we can pay

Standing for an object that we can't see

And remind them of the reasons they are free

If it's true the dead can drift unseen around the loves they had

Then I will be the wind upon your cheek

And the darkest moments in your life will not be so bad

Because I will be your strength when you are week

Oh Sarah start a life without me

Raise our boys to gentlemen

Thrive until the day you pass away and we can meet again

Understand my inner fight

I didn't choose the war

I sided with democracy

As that is what I'm dying for

Oh Sarah, but my love for you is deathless

Oh Sarah, my love for you is deathless

Oh Sarah, my love for you is deathless

Oh Sarah, my love for you is deathless
