[Verse 1]
Two days past eighteen
He was waiting for the bus in his army green
Sat down in a booth in a café there
Gave his order to the girl with the bow in her hair
[Verse 2]
He's a little shy, so she give him a smile
So he said, "Would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talking to me? I'm feeling a little low"
She said, "I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go"
[Verse 3]
So they went down and they sat on the pier
He said, "I bet you got a boyfriend, but I don't care
I've got no one to send my letters to
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you?"
[Chorus]
I cried, never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him, they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
My love will never end, waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Nevermore to be alone
When the letter says her soldier's coming home
