Lyrics

You're an angel
A work of art
Hard to believe it
It breaks my heart
To know the time has come
I hear trumpets and drums
But they don't make a joyful sound
Before the chosen ones
You're so easy on the eye
Oh so pleasing, my oh my
You look like you were born
To wear a uniform
And through His tender mercy from on high
The day shall dawn
You are my soldier
Now they've called you to the war
And it's too late for contemplating
What you're fighting for
You are my soldier
And a soldier has to fight
You're too young to take a drink
But you can take a life
You're an angel
A work of art
So soon to leave me
So soon to part
I dreamed you were the one
Another broken sun
I looked away when someone said
"Only the good die young"
You are my soldier
And a soldier has to pay
If all in love and war is fair
You'll come back home someday
You are my soldier
And you board the northbound train
And if you fall, a million tears
Won't wash away the pain
You are my soldier
You are my soldier
