Dream Letter

Lady time fly away
I’ve been thinking about my yesterday

Oh, please listen darlin’ to my empty prayers
Sleep inside my dreams tonight
All I need to know tonight are you and my child

Oh, is he a soldier or is he a dreamer?
Is he mama’s little man?
Does he help you when he can?
Or honey does he ever ask about me?

Just like a soldier boy
I been out fighting wars
That the world never knows about
Oh but I never win them loud
There’s no crowds around me

But when I get to thinkin’
About the old days
When love was here to stay
I wonder if we’d ever tried
Oh, what I’d give to hold him.
