her eyes were far too pretty to cry these tears
smile so sufficiently innocent to face these fears
her prince charming had a rifle and army clothes
death and war see no face, just the way it goes
*
no one could understand the love she had for him
she shouted for help but no one hears her scream
they both made mistakes but they continued past them
he was going to be her other half to their perfect team
*
can't be denied heaven if an angel walks you there
country needed him to go but she wanted him here
she cried and pleaded for any chance to keep love
kept pictures but his touch she'd been deprived of
*
she feels her life slipping at the hands of Satan
strong but with him gone she begins to weaken
nothing can separate them when words live forever
love grows inside hearts, love keeps them together
*
hopeless, he fights for freedom and fights to make it back home
until a single bullet, takes another angel out of this combat zone
wrote a blank check to his country so they cashed it in his name
the cost of war was collected from a girl who never smiled again
********************************************************
war has no face if bullets have no brain, life leaves only empty photos
live for love as if, together its always sunny and apart it always snows
