Anna Nalick - Soldier lyrics

He was a soldier

He always was

He left his city to fight for America

And we fell in love to music

We were just kids

We didn't have time to be sorry for what we did

And I said hey, boy

What you crying for?

It'll be okay in the end

And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect

There's always the next

She was a pretty Texas girl

An answer to his prayers

He called me to tell me he'd fallen in love with her

She sang like an angel (ahhh)

Loved like a friend

She made my soldier believe he could live again

When she said hey, boy

What you crying for?

It'll be okay in the end

And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect

There's always the next

So I'll be a gambler

And he'll be home free

And he'll marry Texas and I'll marry melody

So love like my soldier

Fight for what's true

And smile at the gates 'cause their hate don't belong to you

And I said hey, boy

What you crying for?

It'll be okay in the end

And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect

There's always the next

Hey, boy

What you crying for?

It'll be okay in the end

And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect

There's always the next

And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect

There's always the next

There's always the next
