Paul Rhea - Soldier's Life (feat. Preston Shewbridge)

On a crowded bus to San Antone
Never felt so all alone
Ready to begin a soldier's life
I left my home in Tennessee
Running from the memory
Of a girl who just became my best friend's wife
Time stands still in Arkansas
It's bending to the mighty draw
Of a heart begging me to turn around
If I could just make Little Rock
Maybe that would start the clock
And convince that stubborn sun to go on down
Every time I close my eyes
I see her in his arms
Yet this girl I've loved for all my life
How could I wish her harm
I hope they send me to the moon
No need to bring me back too soon
Up there I know there's lots of empty space
Where I can think of other things
Like Jupiter or Saturn's rings
And maybe I'll forget her lovely face
Every time I close my eyes
I see her in his arms
Yet this girl I've loved for all my life
How could I wish her harm
What might have been plays in my head
With words that never will be said
I'm on my way to San Antone
Never felt so all alone
Ready to begin a soldier's life
