Soldier - Anna Nalick

He was a soldier

He always was

He left his city to fight for America

And we fell in love to music

We were just kids

We didn’t have time to be sorry for what we did

And I said hey boy

Whatchya cryin' for

It’ll be OK in the end

And if this life doesn’t give you the love you expect

There’s always the next

She was a pretty Texas girl

The answer to his prayers

He called me to tell me he’d fallen in love with her

She sang like an angel

Loved like a friend

And she made my soldier believe he could live aain

When she said

So I’ll be a gambler

And He’ll be home free

He’ll marry Texas and I’ll marry melody

So love like my soldier

Fight for what’s true

And smile at the gates 'cause their hate don’t belong to you
