[bodytext] => I wrote you another letter today. We didn’t have much to do. I hope you got the last one, I sent it on its way. I’m sitting here all alone In my cold hard bed. But the thought of you keeps me warm And I can’t wait to hear you on the phone. I’m leaving for combat tomorrow. It shouldn’t be that hard, They say it’s only a one day mission So honey, put away your sorrow. I got another letter today. I couldn’t help but let loose a tear, When you told me how you felt. I just, I don’t know what to say. I’m glad that we’re together though, I can’t wait for your return. I’m anxious to see your smiling face, And watch our favorite show. I hope that you continue to write And tell me about your day Mostly so that I know you’re still alive And you’ve made it through the night. I’m sitting in our fox hole Waiting for the signal This too will soon be over And we will end with all control. They’ve given us the final call I must be on my way I send my love and best wishes too May God pray that we get through this haul. I got another letter today, But this one wasn’t from you A single tear fell from my eye As the yellow taxi drove away. I didn’t dare to look inside I already knew what it said. How? Why? I can’t explain But all I want to do is hide. What am I going to do tomorrow When I call the state How will I explain you’re a father? How will I put away my sorrow? Hello my dear I’m finally here Can’t you see me now? I’m here to feel your sweet embrace, And wash away your fears. I’ve made it through the blackened night And all the way back home I’m here to comfort you right now And make your smile bright. I promised you I’d always be there And back to you I came. I’ll be here for eternity With never ending care.
