[Teena Marie - Soldier Boy lyrics]
Soldiersi'm sending this one out to
All the men and women
Overseassoldiersin hopes that you come
Home to your familiessoldiers
Give your love just for a lifetime
Faith is just at the right time
Hope here in the night time
Daylight brings the sunshine
Comfort when you needed it
Triviality trust try chance believed it
Send you sweet things through the front door
Give you all of this and much more
Soldier boy sleep there with the angels
Soldier boy keep you safe from danger
Soldier boy we will always be together
I love you, but God he loves you better
So much war and poverty
Wished that you could rest your head on me
To kiss each others' tears away
Keep all your fears at bay
Home as soon as possible
Remind you of the golden rule
See your son and daughter's eyes
In them I keep hope alive
Soldier girl sleep there with the angels
Soldier girl keep you safe from danger
Soldier girl we will always be together
I love you, but God he loves you better
Open up your heart you'll
Find it's heaven sent
And all your thoughts become
So pure so relevant
Exceptions in your mind
You'll find immaculate
And all you winter is no longer test for test
Our Father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be thy Name thy kingdom come
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
I look around the world and all I
See is so much pain and turmoil
Got to teach your kids not to
Waste and destroy the earth's soil
Send our children off to war and
Watch them die for crude oil
Find a positive of what is
Blue or we are foiled
If I had one wish right now
I'd wish I could hold you
Remind you of the sweet things
Your mama told you
Wrap my arms around you until this
Has been brought to closure
Read my letters back to back
You'll always be my soldier
You can count on me to understand
In my milk and honey land
Things are really not that bad
Joyous tidings don't be sad
I'll be waiting right here for you I
Am well and I adore you
Unconditional my love higher than
The stars above
Soldier boy sleep there with the angels
Soldier boy keep you safe from danger
Soldier boy we will always be together
I love you, but God he loves you better
All the men and women
Overseassoldiersin hopes that you come
Home to your familiessoldiers
Give your love just for a lifetime
Faith is just at the right time
Hope here in the night time
