B.O.B - Letters From Vietnam lyrics

rate me

<i>[Verse 1]</i>

Goodbye my love

The country is in need of me

And I heard there were signs for war

So I'm going overseas

So don't cry my love

The skies above will cry for you

And I'll be safe so hopefully

I'll come back home for you

Yeah, yeah

<i>[Chorus]</i>

So please

Tell me it's not true

After all the love I've given

You found someone new

And oh, of all the things I've seen

This has got to be, got to be the greatest tragedy

Oh you, you let it all slip away

But soon you'll find

Soon you'll find (yeah)

What you can't replace

<i>[Female Talking]</i>

I gave away my love

That I promised you I would keep

A thousand deaths I died that day

When two became one

A greater force pulled you away

So I got on my knees and begged

The silence replaced my tears

So goodbye, my love

August 1, 1965

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

<i>[Chorus]</i>

So please

Tell me it's not true

After all the love I've given

You found someone new

And oh, of all the things I've seen

This has got to be, got to be the greatest tragedy

Oh you, you let it all slip away

But soon you'll find

Soon you'll find, yeah

What you can't replace

Yeah

<i>[Verse 2]</i>

Goodbye my love

As I bid farewell to thee

All is fair in love and war

So I'm going overseas
