A PHOTOGRAPH
On the mantelpiece stands a photograph
Soldier and his bride
One of many who had to leave
To march, to fight, to die
She will always remember you and the look in your eyes
One of many who had to leave
And they pushed you to the limit
Fighting man, a frightened child
And you saw her on the battlefield
The closing moments of your life
They will always remember you and the look in your eyes
One of many who had to leave
She is old now, she has lived long, and not a day goes by
Without a thought of you
An unspoken hope
To walk with you beyond the skies
UNA FOTOGRAFÍA
En la repisa está una fotografía
Soldado y su novia
Uno de muchos que tuvieron que partir
Para marchar, luchar, morir
Ella siempre te recordará y la mirada en tus ojos
Uno de muchos que tuvieron que partir
Y te llevaron al límite
Hombre luchador, un niño asustado
Y la viste en el campo de batalla
Los últimos momentos de tu vida
Siempre te recordarán y la mirada en tus ojos
Uno de muchos que tuvieron que partir
Ella es anciana ahora, ha vivido mucho, y no pasa un día
Sin pensar en ti
Una esperanza no dicha
Para caminar contigo más allá de los cielos
