As darkness falls across the sea

See if you remember me

I was the girl who used to sing

I am the girl who wears your ring


You got called by Uncle Sam

Please remember who I am

You went away to Iraq

I know you're fighting, that's a fact


I tried to remember when

This is now, that was then

I want you to come home

Or at least call me on the phone


I need to know that you're alright

That you are putting up a fight

I need to know how you are

You need to know you're my star


You are too far for me to feel

This envelope I will seal

With a kiss and a hope

That you'll come home you big dope
