Postcards Lyrics

Duty calls, he has to go

Leave his wife behind.

They married just a year ago.

The moment he stepped on his plane,

He didn't know

That their lifes would never be the same.

No wrong intentions, just a mistake.

But he doesn't want her heart to break.

So he's writing postcards in his cell.

When he hears the prison bell,

He runs outside on his socks.

Right into the letterbox.

He sends a message to his wife:

‘War is tough, I'm still alive’.

He misses her, he loves her more.

But one day he'll be at the door.

And she can never know

because he loves her so

because he loves her so

Duty calls, they go on foot

Into the foreign land,

He sees a target, aims and shoots.

No wrong intentions, just a mistake.

But he knows her heart to break.

So he's writing postcards in his cell.

When he hears the prison bell,

He runs outside on his socks.

Right into the letterbox.

He sends a message to his wife:

‘War is tough, I'm still alive’.

He misses her, he loves her more.

But one day he'll be at the door.

And she can never know

because he loves her

because he loves her so

She was at the wrong place, at the wrong time.

He thought she was a spie.

Now he’s committed a crime.

Which he covers up,

He covers up in lies.

And now he's writing postcards in his cell.

And when he hears the prison bell,

He runs outside on his socks.

Right into the letterbox.

He sends a message to his wife:

‘War is tough, I'm still alive’.

He misses her, he loves her more.

But one day he'll be at the door.

And she can never know

because he loves her so

because he loves her so

‘cause he loves her so.
