Tekst piosenki
[Verse 1] They were soul-mates, said she'd wait for him She miss the old days, always faithful to him Running out to the postman, always waiting on his letters Says it's her strength, a piece of love he sent her Since they sent him overseas all she can do is count the days Till he returns home, all the while he does the same Staring out the window each night, she trying not to cry Taking comfort knowing that he's looking to the same sky Counting their blessings, as many as there are stars No amount of distance could ever tear them apart It was meant to be, he could plainly see This is the one sent down from heaven for me But suddenly one day the letters just stop And she struggles to understand what she did wrong Could it be that the strain just got too hard Suddenly maybe the distance got too far Now her hope for the future become tears of torture Feeling lost in love with a soldier of misfortune So she drags herself through a daily routine That soured ever since her every dream Became a nightmare to through Still check the mail hoping something will come through And every night she lies awake and cries Cuz she knows it's time for a long goodbye [Bridge] Oh this is a long goodbye Somebody tell me why Two lovers in love can't make it Just what kind of love keeps breaking a heart No matter how hard I try I always make you cry C'mon baby it's over let's face it All that's happening here is a long goodbye [Verse 2] Then one day there's a ringing at the door Soldier in dress blues says "we regret to inform you That he was killed in the line of duty He was a great soldier and a man of true virtue Here's his medals, and the last of his letters And the picture from his pocket, he really loved you" She sits down and deadly pain for the doubt she threw on him A rush of tears as she sees his medal of honor His actions saved the lives of twenty-two men And now this is all she has left of him Vows to love him until the day she dies As he did, now she has to face this long goodbye [Outro] I know they say if you love somebody... You should set them free
