| We fell in love the moment we first met
|
| And everything was perfect in our lives
|
| But I’m a soldier and I wont forget
|
| The call of duty came and I went with pride
|
| I found myself over seas, just protecting the dreams that we have
|
| And there’s' nothing more important than giving all I have to give
|
| I’m fighting for the things that I believe
|
| Its time to go my country’s calling me
|
| When I go walking through that door
|
| I’m leaving with my head held high
|
| I’ll serve my country through this war
|
| But I’ll come back with pride
|
| When I got home after my tour was through
|
| I couldn’t wait to take her as my wife
|
| I asked her father if he would approve
|
| And he said «son give her a happy life»
|
| I found my self overjoyed when she told me a baby boy, was on the way
|
| But my face grew pale when I picked up the mail
|
| And saw my second call of duty came
|
| Still fighting for the things that I believe
|
| Its time to go my country’s calling me
|
| I love my family, but I serve my country
|
| And I’ll be the man who swore an oath to those above me
|
| And I’ll fight harder, and I won’t be martyred
|
| And I’ll make it home so all my children know me
|
| So all my children know me
|
| I’ll come back alive
|
| So all my children know me I’ll come back alive |
