There's a love he cannot hide
|
Though he waits in the line to fight
|
So he looks up to welcome you, his child
|
Little stranger girl, you are home tonight
|
|
He reaches out a thousand miles
|
An sends his voice to where you lie
|
And in your dreams he carries you, his child
|
Little stranger girl, you are home tonight
|
|
When you have grown, you may ask why
|
And you will read these words he writes
|
And they will say, I thank you, my child,
|
Little stranger girl, you are home tonigt
|
