Daddys Gone

She walked up to him brushed her hand along his arm
leaned over and whispered in his ear
your the one for me dear
I want you to stay close
I want you to stay near

He gave her a loving stare back
he told her that every little thing she does
Makes his world exciting and new
As she flicked her hair across her neck

She couldnt take her eyes off of him
There was the love of her life stairing at her with a smile a silly grin
As silence broke the moment  as if caught up in time
He knew someday he would marry her
And all in life would be fine

This moment they didnt take for granted
They made the most of what they had
Before he was to go and fight for his country
Her freedom and that of the unborn childs dad

Little did they know of this
only time would tell of this tale
When he was at war
she was gone to far
The child would be born before then

As she sent off letters to him to tell him of his child
a telegram came to silence her
The news was bad inside
She held her baby near and whispered in his ear

Your daddys gone been killed by a bomb
What will we do now
Oh what can be done
Dear baby you are your daddys son

 A picture was all she had left
She pinned it to the babies cot
As tears trickled down her face
She remembered their first dating place

As she walked up to him brushed her hand along his arm
As he leaned over and whispered in his ear
His words to her your the one for me dear
I want you to stay close
I want you to stay near
