A tear drops from a young girls eye as her daddy says goodbye
He wipes her cheek kissing her head and says baby pleaase dont cry
where will you go how long will you be there are you leaving me forever
I dont know where or how long ill be gone but leaving you i will never
Why must you leave can i come with you i promise I will be good
Im leaving for freedom and ill be back id take you if i could
Why dont you cry are you going to miss me will you take me in your heart
I have to be strong and I always miss you when ever where apart
A tear drop from a soldiers eye as his daughter says goodbye
She wipes his cheeck and kisses his nose and says ill be proud but please dont die
