GOODBYE MY SOLDIER, GOODBYE (a song by Barbara Lynne

a song written for my first boyfriend over 46 years ago as he was leaving for Viet Nam...he made it home only to be killed in a car accident.

(for Danny)

GOODBYE MY SOLDIER, GOODBYE

Hold my hand

Give me a kiss

You're the only soldier

That I'm gonna' miss

You're leaving me tomorrow

With you take my heart

Keep it as a memory

Of the day we had to part

I knew this day would come

When we had to say goodbye

But I know that you'll come back to me

So I'll try not to cry

I'll say a prayer

For you each night

Waiting for the day

Your arms can hold me so tight

Hold my hand

Give me a kiss

Goodbye my soldier, goodbye

Goodbye my soldier, goodbye
