lyrics

I recall when my loves' hair was long like the summer
And I was a scared young kid
Afraid of the impending changes she eventually did
We were both a trembling mess
When the half-light came that day
She ran off to some far northern country
And I begged "God, make her stay"

I recall when my loves' hair was red like the autumn
Falling down her neck
The bombs were going off in some foreign place
We'd never been
You were crying on the phone
"Oh, where is God in this?"
I could never lift your heavy heart
But I always did my best

I recall when the war hadn't raged on between us
And I was a scared young kid
To be a soldier and to soldier on
What a war it really is
I was young and I was terrified
Of the sadness through which I roam
To be a postcard and to never be
Written out and sent back home
