The Promise lyrics

Signed his name on the dotted line
Only doing what he thought was right
He answered the call and shipped out
To the sound of her crying
A promise he made to her
I'll return to you somehow
Oh but fate's a razor
And the winds of war blow foul

Wait for me my love and
I will love you always
Keep your faith in me alive
Till we meet again

Touched down upon the killing floor
Where men are just fodder for the mouth of war
Beneath a nightmare sky
Where the mortars fell like the rain
Orders come down from high above
And brave men fall in a river of blood
They sell their lives for every precious inch they gain
Just another dawn patrol
When cruel fate made itself known
And a sniper's shot from nowhere
Blew all their dreams away

Wait for me my love and
I will love you always
Keep your faith in me alive
Till we meet again

A lifetime later, upon a foreign shore
An old woman weeps and remembers
As she reads the gravestone words
An epitaph so fitting, there carved upon the stone
And his words return to haunt her
A promise made so long ago

Wait for me my love and
I will love you always
Keep your faith in me alive
Till we meet again
