[Verse 1]
The soldier lost his love and left his town without a warning
"Unlike the setting sun, I won’t be back home in the morning
I was gone for too long and for that, I am so sorry"
White knuckles on a gun; “I thought she would be waiting for me"

[Chorus]
And I can’t stay here
No, I can’t stay here
I'm looking out the window but it feels like a mirror
And I can’t see you
No, I can’t see you
My heartbeat’s running slow and my blood is turning blue
But I love you so
Oh, I love you so

[Verse 2]
The soldier had a chance, so he left his bags before boarding
The sky, his sweater; blue, in this cold December morning
His steps outran his heart as his visions turned into glimpses
And the distance fell apart as the miles turned to inches

[Chorus]
Now, can you hear me
Can you hear
I’m begging for forgiveness and I promise I'll stay here
You can trust me, I will be true
My blood is running thin and heart beats just for you
‘Cause I love you so
Oh, I love you so

[Outro]
‘Cause I love you so
Oh, I love you so
