Lonely Soldier

Lyrics

[Intro: Spoken Word] It's been so long since I've heard from my man But a letter came today And it touched the bottom of my soul And it must have been in some quiet moment On a terrible battlefield When he had these words to say: [Verse 1] It's been so long since I've been home And I just thought that I would write Oh, I hope these words will come to you On some dark and lonely night [Chorus] Don't you know, my love is real? (Yes, I know his love his real) Oh, don't you see just how I feel (How he feels) Oh, I'm alone, just a lonely soldier boy Oh, people beg to get back to home [Verse 2] I know it's hard (So hard) While we're apart (We're apart) So, darling, just have a little faith Oh, you won't regret my love for you If you would only, only wait [Chorus] Don't you know, my love is real? (Yes, I know his love his real) Oh, don't you see just how I feel (How he feels) Oh, I'm alone, just a lonely soldier boy [Bridge: Spoken Word] And sometimes, as I sit here You know, my heart is frozen with fear And I think about the good times we had And it's in times like this, that missing you hurts so bad [Chorus] I'm a lonely soldier boy (Lonely, lonely, lonely) Oh, I'm alone, just a lonely soldier boy Yeah, I'm coming home (He's coming home) Oh, wait for me (He's coming home) I'm coming home, yeah (He's coming home) I'm coming on home, and I know And I know that I love you This soldier boy loves you, baby
