I realize the day will come when you have to leave.
But I guess it just hurts so bad its hard to believe.
The starry nights the life long dreams all swept away.
Are the things I know war will take away.
I tried to play a happy face
As he went away
Life will be hard at times to even keep up the pace.
Soft kisses and gentle hugs I can see as yesterdays.
The things I know war will take away.
I barley see the sun
I barley notice night,
I only know the pain that grows as my heart sees the fright.
My imagination takes me
To a place Id hate to see.
But Iâ??ll hold your image close,
Because you hold the key.
Ill wait for your return; phone calls from day to day.
Wishing to hold you close a dream so far away.
Ill follow all my promises that I made to you that day.
But I know there are things war will take away.
Things war will take away.
