Karaoké Travelin' Soldier Aaron Lewis & Zoe Lewis

Two days past eighteen

He was waitin' for the bus in his army green

Sat down in a booth in a cafe there

He gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair

He's a little shy so she give him a smile

And he said, would you mind sittin' down for a while and talkin' to me

I'm feelin' a little low

She said, I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go

So they went down and they sat on the pier

He said, I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care

I got no one to send a letter to

Would you mind if I sent one back here to you

I cried

Never gonna hold the hand of another guy

Too young for him they told her

Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier

Our love will never end

Waitin' for the soldier to come back again

Never more to be alone

When the letter said a soldier's comin' home

So the letters came from an army camp in California then Afghanistan

And he told her of his heart it might be love

And all of the things that he was so scared of

He said, when it's gettin' kinda rough over here

I think of that day sittin' down at the pier

And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile

Don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while

I cried

Never gonna hold the hand of another guy

Too young for him they told her

Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier

Our love will never end

Waitin' for the soldier to come back again

Never more to be alone

When the letter said a soldier's comin' home

One Friday night at a football game

The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang

A man said, folks would you bow your head to a list of local soldiers dead

Cryin' all alone under the stands was a piccolo player in the marchin' band

And one name read and nobody really cared but the pretty little girl with a bow in her hair

I cried

Never gonna hold the hand of another guy

Too young for him they told her

Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier

Our love will never end

Waitin' for the soldier to come back again

Never more to be alone

When the letter said a soldier's comin'

I cried

Never gonna hold the hand of another guy

Too young for him they told her

Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier

Our love will never end

Waitin' for the soldier to come back again

Never more to be alone

When the letter said a soldier's comin' home
