[00:00.05] from We Were Soldiers soundtrack
[00:00.55]
[00:01.55] La la la
[00:02.18] La la la
[00:03.60] La
[00:06.55] La la la
[00:08.29] La la la
[00:09.87] La
[00:12.37]
[00:13.03] I remember the first day I met you
[00:16.76] We were so young
[00:19.45] You were a blessing, there was no guessing
[00:22.90] You were the one
[00:25.60] Love was so crazy, we had a baby
[00:29.11] And said our vows
[00:31.94] That's when you told me should anything happen
[00:35.37] I can hear you now
[00:37.19] You told me...
[00:37.90] "If the sun comes up
[00:39.62] And I'm not home, be strong
[00:44.12] If I'm not beside you
[00:45.99] Do your best to carry on
[00:50.28] Tell the kids about me
[00:52.04] When they're old enough to understand
[00:56.99] Tell them that their daddy was a good man."
[01:07.25]
[01:15.89] First anniversary, remember we
[01:19.51] Chose a star
[01:22.05] But as I stand under it
[01:23.68] I can't help but wonder if you see it where you are
[01:28.46] For whatever reason
[01:29.85] We don't see the seasons change again
[01:34.82] Go there with peace of mind
[01:36.26] We'll meet on the other side
[01:38.04] 'Cause true love don't end
[01:40.19] Now baby..
[01:40.73] If the sun comes up
[01:42.38] And you're not home I'll be strong
[01:47.35] If you're not beside me
[01:48.75] I'll do my best to carry on
[01:53.17] I'll tell the kids about you
[01:54.93] When they're old enough to understand
[01:59.81] Tell them that their daddy was a good man
[02:05.76]
[02:22.47] Two eyes, looking up at me
[02:28.81] Pointing to the picture like "where is he?"
[02:34.28] "Mama are you okay, what did the paper say
[02:37.84] To make you cry that way?"
[02:40.19] It said, "your daddy lived for you
[02:42.33] Your daddy died for you
[02:44.20] And I'll do the same."
[02:46.06] Now baby if the sun comes up
[02:48.54] And I'm not home be strong
[02:53.41] If I'm not besdie you
[02:54.94] Do your best to carry on
[02:59.42] Tell your kids about me
[03:00.95] When they're old enough to understand
[03:05.87] Tell them that your daddy was a good man...
[03:12.48]
[03:18.49] La la la
[03:20.21] La la la
[03:21.63] La la
[03:23.54]
