January 1st, we are marching for the front I see tired soldiers sleeping everywhere How is everyone? Tell my love to Paul and John! I'll be back some day please have no fears I know a place Where we can hide And leave this crazy world behind our backs Just you and me Far far away Let's make this journey into something new But deep down he knew he would never make it tomorrow One by one He had seen his friends becoming victims of a Cold War Pete was left behind A piece of shell and he was blind I don't know if I can take no more My mind is weak I can't recall I need to reconstruct my days in this hell Deep down she knew they would never end up together One by one She had seen her friends becoming victims of the letter A cold wind's blowing through this town I see those faces all around Waiting for the letter Waiting for the letter A cold wind's blowing through this town I see those faces all around Waiting for the letter Waiting for the letter Boy, am I glad to say I hear rumors every day Word is out that we are nearing the end I'm coming back I'm coming home Oh Lord, I couldn't take another day Deep down she knew he would never be the same man again One by one She had seen them coming from the station without anything A cold wind's blowing through this town I see those faces all around Waiting for the letter Waiting for the letter A cold wind's blowing through this town I see those faces all around Waiting for the letter Waiting for the letter
