Once again I sit and think

By torchlight -

The soft orange glow

Of my cigarette.

The darkness seems blacker

Tonight, because I know

Tomorrow I won’t forget,

Everything that you’re

Fighting for.

-

You’ll dress in your armour

As they strip off

All your clothes;

Hiding the fear that only you

Will know, until it’s over.

Grasp the sword,

Hold up your shield,

Don’t be afraid of the needle

That will heal, everything

You’ve fought for so far.

-

We’ll stand behind you -

The army who can

Always defend,

The family who love you

Will be there till the end.

When the torture is over,

We’ll walk together

As one, like an army

Of soldiers, this family

Will go on, like never before.

-

I know I’ve never told you;

My knight who

Never knew;

But I’ve got my sword ready

And I’ll cross that line for you.

The line of all boundaries

I never thought I’d cross,

I’ll be on that battlefield,

Fighting at all costs

Because I love you.

-

Just because�?/P>

I love you.
