00:10With a heavy heart, I packed my bags tonight, left my love behind under that pale moonlight.
00:20She stood there waiting, tears fell from her eyes.
00:25I held her close, whispering, I'll return no goodbyes.
00:30I signed the papers, felt a pride and a pain for protecting our freedom, but it's hard to reframe.
00:40She said, stay safe, my love, I'll be right here.
00:45As I walked away, my heart filled with fear.
00:49Promises on the front line, a soldier's vow.
00:56To love and cherish, I'll make it somehow.
01:01When the guns are silent and the battle's done, I'll find my way back.
01:08Cause she's the only one.
01:14The stars shine bright, but they're lonely tonight.
01:19With every mile I go, my soul's taking flight.
01:24I remember her laughter, her gentle embrace.
01:30Thinking about our future, our sweet little place.
01:34Days turn nice, days turn nice.
01:37As the memory lingers, of holding her close.
01:42Tracing love with my fingers, in the barracks I dream.
01:47With her face in my mind, this love's worth the fight.
01:53A treasure to find.
01:55Promises on the front line, a soldier's vow.
02:02To love and cherish, I'll make it somehow.
02:06When the guns are silent and the battle's done,
02:11I'll find my way back.
02:14Cause she's the only one.
02:18We promised forever, under that old oak tree.
02:23She said, no matter what, you'll always be with me.
02:29I'll wear these boots proudly, for all that they're worth.
02:34But I'll carry her love, till I return to her.
02:39So here I stand, a soldier on the line.
02:44Each moment I fight, her love keeps me alive.
02:49I close my eyes tight, hear her soft voice say.
02:54Come back to me, darling, we'll never drift away.
03:00With every breath I take, I'm counting down the days.
03:06To hold her in my arms, in so many ways.
03:12Promises on the front line, a soldier's vow.
03:18To love and cherish, I'll make it somehow.
03:23When the guns are silent and the battle's done,
03:27I'll find my way back, cause she's the only one.
03:36So I'll fight for our future, I'll fight for her name.
03:41In every single battle, I'll carry her flame.
03:46With a heavy heart, but a spirit so free.
03:51I'll come back as a man, for my love waits for me.
03:58I'll come back as a man, for my love waits for me.
