Valid Fear of Change
Posted February 9, 2006
Mary met Jack and they knew it was love
That they should be together was the only thing
They were sure of but it was enough
Jack had dreams of flyin the skies
Mary knew his dreams had to be realized
So she held her peace and never asked him not to go
She was the sweetest little thing hed seen
He was the man who haunted all her dreams
And before he left he gave a promise and a wedding ring
Ill be back, dont you worry
I wont change, dont you worry
Ill come back and give you all my love
I dont know much, but thats one thing Im sure of.
Mary knew her place was to stand by her man
So she dried her tears and let go of his hand
And she watched him fly into the wild blue
She remembered him as he was back then
Sweet and kind, a girls best friend
And she say these words over and over again
Ill be back, dont you worry
I wont change, dont you worry
Ill come back and give you all my love
I dont know much, but thats one thing Im sure of.
But the sky and the soldiers have a tendency
To change a man from what he used to be
He came back orders and sharp dress blues, unaware, without a clue
Mary couldnt take it or understand
What had become of her soft-hearted man
She jumped at the touch of his cold steel hand
At night she would cry on her side of the bed
And run through the memories tucked away in her head
But she never repeated that broken promise he made
Ill be back, dont you worry
I wont change, dont you worry
Ill come back and give you all my love
I dont know much, but thats one thing Im sure of.
