Sweetheart, this picture, stained with crimson tide
But a lifetime of loving, condensed into this heat
I should've held you tighter, whispered promises true
My love for you, eternal, beneath this fading sky
Angry words spoken, a love harshly cleft
A lifetime of loving, wrapped around this tattered sheet
This wasn't the future we dreamt of, you and I
Remember that fight, the night before I left?
Instead, I slammed the door, leaving the worst of me with you
Forgive me, darling, for the harsh goodbye
Cold steel in my side, the world fades to gray
The mud sucks me down, a crimson tide rising high
The memory of your smile, for a little while
It chases away the fear, the sting of defeat
Sweetheart, this picture, worn with every mile
The memory of your smile, by my side, my side
Comrades lie silent, their faces turned to sky
Smoke stings my eyes, another soldier gone astray
We'll dance beneath the stars, a waltz in the unknown
No battlefield scars, just love we've always known
It chases away the fear, the final, fading beat
But in your eyes, my love, forever I can fly
