Lyrics

You can write me a letter, but don't say goodbye Even though I won't see you, you're always in my mind
And I'll press the flowers you gave me when it rained In a beautiful book with a story full of pain
Oh, oh my darling boy, why is life so cruel to us? Oh, oh my soldier boy, if only we could hold onto our love
Lost are the days of our youth Cause now you're eighteen and my birthday's in June
And I faked a smile as I watched you leave You went down to the trenches and fought to be free
Oh, oh my darling boy, why is life so cruel to us? Oh, oh my soldier boy, if only we could hold onto our love
Sometimes wounds cut to deep to be healed My heart is so numb that I don't know what to feel
And now I write you letters and leave them on your grave People say it's tragic, but it happened that way
And all I have left is a picture of you And memories that open and close up my wounds
This isn't goodbye, it's just a form of sorrow Cause I'll still go to sleep and love you tomorrow
