  A Soldiers Life (Part 1)

User Rating:

10.0 /10

  We were just killing some time
Drinking lemonade and lime
Watching waves crash to the shore
just like many times before

Waiting for the sun to rise
Right before our very eyes
Dark skies turn slowly to blue
Dawn breaks on the Avenue

Take a stroll along the beach
A shooting star out of reach
It’s so calm, before the storm
Early sunshine, not too warm

A host of sparrows fly by
as the sun lights up the sky
Nature’s a thing of beauty
Have to leave, it’s my duty

Catch the early morning flight
Will phone you sometime tonight
Don’t like leaving you like this
No more tears, part with a kiss
