Lonely soldier dry your tears its almost over soldier

The train has almost stopped, soon you will see her

Swallow those frightened whimpers soldier and face the fight

When you close your eyes everything is all right



Remember why you’re here soldier, the freedom you fight for

And when this battle’s over you still might fight a hidden war

But remember why I love you soldier, for all those times you face

I love you for loving the million Americans with no face



I raise a glass to toast you and you bow, a gentleman

I wish there was a better way soldier, thank you for taking the stand
