Sunrise in the city

Our soldiers are coming home

After 7 years of blablabla



She's waiting by the docks

With a picture in her hands

Of her one and only love

Others are still waiting

While families reunite

With the ones they missed so much

She's still standing alone

Now everyone else has gone home

A soldier walks up to her

with a picture of her in his hand



He said, sorry about your man

No one could have saved him

Sorry to say he isn't coming home



Numbness fills her body, weekening her knees

She wants to run away

Memories come alive, of how it used to be

Before he went away



So many things on her mind,

so many things she wants to know

did he miss me when he was alive

did he suffer or did he just go



he said lady he missed you and

said he'll always love you

sorry to say he isn't coming home

you should be proud he died a man

fighting for his country

sorry to say he isn't coming home



She's still on her own

Tells herself she should have known

That some soldiers fall in war

And don't come home



Now it's time to say goodbye

Trying so hard not to cry

Hoping that some day

Her heart for him will die
