Two days past eighteen He was waiting on a bus 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 He's a little shy so she give him a smile He said would you mind sittin' down for a while And talking to me, I'm feeling pretty low She said I'm off in an hour and I know a place we can go So they went down and sat on the pier He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care 'Cause I got no one to send a letter to Would you mind if I sent one back here to you I cried Never gonna hold the hand of another guy Too young for him they told her Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier Our love will never end Waitin' for the soldier to come back again Never more to be alone when the letter says A soldier's coming 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 it's getting kinda rough over here I sit and think about that day on the pier Letras de cancionesAnd I close my eyes and see your pretty smile Don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while I cried Never gonna hold the hand of another guy Too young for him they told her Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier Our love will never end Waitin' for the soldier to come back again Never more to be alone when the letter says A soldier's coming home One Friday night at a football game The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang A man said folks would you bow your head For the list of local Vietnam dead Well, crying all alone under the stands Was a piccolo player in the marching band And one name read and nobody really cared 'Cept that pretty little girl with a bow in her hair I cried Never gonna hold the hand of another guy Too young when they told her Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier Our love will never end Waitin' for the soldier to come back again Never more to be alone when the letter says A soldier's coming home When the letter says A soldier's coming home From Letras Mania
