Since you went away, You can color me, colour me, colour me, colour me in grey So I'm working on the words I want to say I never knew, never knew, never knew your name You're just my soldier, babe
You lost track of the days They come and they go, and they come and they go There's no way that I could keep up with it And I pray And I wonder, wonder, wonder if you hear me Ten thousand miles away
Hey soldier I'm missing your life Wish I could hold ya And make it alright Sending you my love and a little light I never told ya That you're my soldier But goodnight
You know it's gonna take, gonna take, gonna take more time Till we're staring up at the same sky And so I'm going to wait, going to wait, going to wait in line Till my soldier's mine
Hey soldier I'm missing your life Wish I could hold ya And make it alright Sending you my love and a little light I never told ya That you're my soldier Goodnight
I don't care how long it takes I'm not going anywhere, love (no) You see there This distance only makes me Say it over and over till it gets to you My soldier (ooh)
Hey soldier I'm missing your life Wish I could hold ya And make it alright Sending you my love and a little light I never told ya
You're my soldier Goodnight Sending you my love and a little light I never told ya That you're my soldier
