My Soldier
The first day I spent with you turned into a crush.
The first time you truly looked at me, I longed to feel your touch.
The first time you kissed me, I was lifted far out into space.
The first time you held me, you took my breath away.
The first time my heart beat was when you told me how you felt...
It was the first time, I swear, I knew that this was truly real.
The first day I spent without you, my heart just broke in two.
When you're ready to come home, I'll be here waiting for you.
I dream of you and think of you as every minute goes by.
I wait for you and watch for you, trying not to cry.
As you're gone, away over sea, I have but one plea...
That you'll carry me with you and never forget me,
My dear soldier, fighting for me.
