1945 - In Fiction

I’m still waiting on the letters that you sent

And I remember thinking how it felt so warm every night

And how…

We’d put the TV in the window and watch from outside

We’d fall alseep in the yard, we must’ve done it a hundred times

So how are you keeping?

Are you sleeping well at night?

Well here it’s freezing, kinda makes it hard to write

But you…

Could make a man forget his shoes and dance on burning coals

We lay awake here at night

Fingers crossed and it’s time to go

But it’s hard to say

We stand our ground

As the sounds get louder

Here today

The world

Never seemed so far away

But that first kiss feeling

My heart sinks for that thought

When your touch feels real and

We’re alone to live the life we couldn’t start

Oh my dear it’s been so long to be apart

Well I’m still here

Photographs of the people that I love

I’m still here

It’s not a lot but today they mean so much

And it’s hard to say

We stand our ground

As the sounds get louder

Here today

The world

Never seemed so far away

But that first kiss feeling

My heart sinks for that thought

When your touch feels real and

We’re alone to live the life we couldn’t start

Oh my dear it’s been so long to be apart

Well I know again you’ll fall asleep in my arms

Right now they need me here

So when I get home

It’ll be to stay
