two days past 18 he was waiting 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. and said would you mind sittin down for a while. im feelin a little low. she said im off in an hour and i know where we can go. [/color]
so they went down and sat on the pier. he said i bet you have a boyfriend but i dont care. i have no one. to send a letter to you. would you mind if i sent one back here to you.[/font]
i cried never gunna hold the hand of another guy. to young for him they told her waitin for the love of the travelin soldier. our love will never end wait for the soldier to come back again. never more to be alone. when the letter said a soldier's commin 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 gettin kinda rough over here. i think of that day sittin down at the pier. and i close my eyes and i see your pretty smile. dont worry, but i wont be able to write for a while.[/color][/font]
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.[/size][/color]
