Align:    
  • Two days past eighteen
  • He was waiting for the bus in his army green
  • Sat down in a booth in a cafe there
  • Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
  • Hes a little shy so she gives him a smile
  • And he said would you mind sittin down for a while
  • And talking to me,
  • Im feeling a little low
  • She said Im off in an hour and I know where we can go
  • So they went down and they sat on the pier
  • He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I dont care
  • I got no one to send a letter to
  • Would you mind if I sent one back here to you
  • Chorus: I cried
  • Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
  • Too young for him they told her
  • Waitin for the love of a travelin soldier
  • Over love will never end
  • Waitin for the soldier to come back again
  • Never more to be alone when the letter said
  • A soldiers coming home
  • So the letters came from an army camp
  • In california then vietnam
  • And he told her of his heart
  • It might be love and all of the things he was so scared of
  • He said when its getting kinda rough over here
  • I think of that day sittin down at the pier
  • And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile
  • Dont worry but I wont be able to write for awhile
  • [chorus]
  • One friday night at a football game
  • The lords prayer said and the anthem sang
  • A man said folks would you bow your heads
  • For a list of local vietnam dead
  • Crying all alone under the stands
  • Was a piccolo player in the marching band
  • And one name read and nobody really cared
  • But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair
  • [chorus]
  • [chorus]
