I have faith that the lord will see,
And save myself from me...
Promises you made me make,
Even as the words left my lips...
How can I thank you,
When I owe you my life...
When you are growing old,
I will be dead and cold...
Every day had its showers of pain,
That came and went like the rain...
Sorry I made you cry,
Sorry I didn't make you proud...
I shall not last the week,
Things are beginning to fade...
When I am dead,
Cry out your heart...
A man in a boat,
Was floating out at sea...
Be strong my soldier,
Fight with pride...
Slip away in soft slumber,
Close those beautiful eyes...
I am as special you,
I may not be as happy...
