And in the photo that I saw

Seemed to me to tell it all

Showed a young girl lying there on his grave

And the flowers in her hand as she cried out for her man

Will stay in my mind as the heartbreak of the war

Oh so young to lose so much

As she cried out for his touch

That will never come forever and a day

But the love that they shared

Will for always still be theirs

It’s the way that true love always has its say

And the hurt that’s in us all

From watching all those young men fall

Leaves us wondering and numb in our souls

And the flowers in her hand

As she lays down with her man

And the heartbreak of the war tells it all

But the love that they shared




Will for always still be theirs

It’s the one thing still unbroken by the war

Yes, the love that they shared

Will forever still be theirs

It’s the way true love always has its say

It’s the way true love always has its way
