You want her to try new things She reminds you she wears your ring and after a couple drinks she's a little scared of you A good friend is hard to find You wish you could spend more time towing civilian lines, but they're all scared of you
It's not the time that makes it go bad It's not the thought of what you could've had It's not the way that her figure has changed It's just that a soldier gets strange
You know she's a real good girl She reminds you that every curl that whips in the wind of the world is watched by the eyes of God But lately your mane's gone white You itch in your veins in the night Before you "came home alright" you wielded the lightning rod
It ain't the time that makes it go South It ain't the liquor that burns in your mouth Nearly nothing around here's changed It's just that a soldier gets strange
She turns off the lights so you can't see her body You can't make her fight when you know that you're wrong They call you a hero, so many still fighting This ain't where you belong
Maybe you'll re-enlist It couldn't be worse than this But think of the things you'll miss If you're inside the wire again
It's not the dreams that keep you up late It's not the world you saw incinerate It's not the way that her figure has changed It's just that a soldier gets strange Most of all you got strangeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
