The Postman |
They married in June one afternoon in a church down by their home |
She wore the ring his mother gave him the day that he left home |
They danced before their families and they held each other close |
And on that lovely night in June, oh he loved her so |
The war took him to Paris one year since they had wed |
He packed envelopes and cigarettes ink and his fountain pen |
He said I will send you letters each week that I am gone |
And I promise you’ll feel better, when the postman comes |
The months had past on slowly and his boots had lost their tread |
But still he wrote his letters this week this one had said |
You are always with me even when I feel alone |
And this rifle bears a burden and its heavy on my soul |
But you wont have to miss me as once this war is won |
We will be together, when the postman comes |
She opens the door to a man with a telegram |
A sad look on his face |
She wipes away a single tear and she hears him say |
Something about the military apologies in the ministry |
And she fell, to the floor |
She questioned him said you’ve got this wrong |
My husbands fast my husbands strong |
And I promise you’ll know better, when the postman comes |
If you’ve received this letter it means the worst has done |
And I’m sorry and I love you this isn’t what I want |
But you will find another and I will understand |
I just hope he loves you more than any other can |
I sent you all these letters and for reasons there’s just one |
It is me you will remember. |
when the postman comes |
When the postman comes |
