Hello, a telephone tells me that it won't be long now
Goodbye, don't you cry, cause I need you to be strong nowSoon they'll come and give the order
I hope we'll meet across the borderLove, lay your head on my weary shoulder
I can hear those battle drums
Love, say a prayer for your little soldier
If tomorrow never comesHigh ho, I gotta go
Gotta hurry cause time is wasting
So long, please carry on
Pretending like nothing is changingI try and pull myself together
I'll be with you, so please rememberLove, lay your head on my weary shoulder
I can hear those battle drums
Love, say a prayer for your little soldier
If tomorrow never comesI'm going away, I'm going away
I'm going away and it won't be long
I'm already gone
I'm facing a great unknown, on my own, her I go
Hold me closer till this is over, then
Love, lay your head on my weary shoulder
I can hear those battle drums
Love, say a prayer for your little soldier
If tomorrow never comes
If tomorrow never comes
