Anna Nalick - Soldier (Demo) 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
Ah
Ah
Ah
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
Oh
Oh
And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect there's always the next"

Mmm
Mmm
Mmm

Ha
Oh
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm

Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm

Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm

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"
Whoa

"Hey boy
What you crying for
It will be okay in the end
And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect there's always the next"
If this life doesn't give you the love you expect there's always the next
There's always the next"
