all mine

WARTIME LOVE
She met him fresh off the plane,
The soldier- raw from the war.
There was a spark
In their touch
Even dad saw that much.
He in one state,
she alone in another.
Late night phone calls’ to each other
I.M.’s and Emails too
Apart they felt so lonely and blue.
Come to me he asked.
To his side, she went.
Side by side they lived.
Then the call came from Uncle Sam
Back to war young man.
He couldn’t leave his love alone.
With out his ring on her finger.
His love in her soul.
Marry me girl,
Be my love forever.
His bride she became
Her dreams come true.
His love made her
More beautiful than before.
Then he readied to leave for the war.
(chorus)
Daddy, I’m afraid, she called,
These feelings so new…
This love shines so true.
What shall I do?
I don’t want to be alone.
I need his touch
It‘s not asking much…

His body walked upon the plane,
His heart with her remained.
To a war torn land
She stood strong for them.
But her heart left with him.
A world away he was
Yet their hearts still beat as one
Oh! To be home together again.
Each dreaming of his return
In each others arms, they yearn.
