To My Dearest Wife |
Waitin' on the sunrise, I’ve given up on sleep |
My only thoughts are with you all back home in Tennessee |
They’re dug in on the hilltop, we got cover in the trees |
Between the two, an open field that looks like hell to me |
And to my dearest wife I write |
Kiss our baby girls tonight |
Tomorrow’s battle will not wait |
But I don’t see no other way |
I can see the old house not too long ago |
Every night I slept by your side, heaven just bein' home |
Can hear 'em callin' Reveille, I can see the sun |
It breaks my heart we’re kept apart, still fightin' to be done |
To my dearest wife I write |
Kiss our baby girls tonight |
Tomorrow’s battle will not wait |
But I don’t see no other way |
Mine eyes have seen the glory |
The glory of the comin' of the Lord |
And he is tramplin' out the vintage |
The vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored |
Now the sun is risen, you mean the world to me |
My thoughts was turned to work at hand far from Tennessee |
They’re dug in on the hilltop, we leave the cover of the trees |
We’ll march across that open field that looks like hell to me |
To my dearest wife I write |
Kiss our baby girls tonight |
Tomorrow’s battle will not wait |
But I don’t see no other way |
The bride of war wears blood and fire |
Hand-in-hand, death walks beside her |
We’ll cross the field, lay all to waste |
I don’t see no other way |
To my dearest wife I write |
Kiss our baby girls tonight |
