(ahhhh) Writing you by candlelight,
the barracks are asleep
Thinking of the promises
we swore that we would keep The ink is dry,
the paper worn, but every word is true
My darling, all my quiet hours are spent in thoughts of you (hummmmm)
Across the miles,
across the sea
Keep a little light
on for me
I am holding on
to your hand in the dark
Waiting for the day I can mend your
aching heart
There is a photograph of you
I carry in my coat
Beneath the dust and cold steel,
it keeps my heart afloat
They say the winter's coming,
the sky is turning grey
But in my mind it's summer,
and we are miles away
Across the miles,
across the sea
Keep a little light on for me
I am holding on to your hand in the dark
Waiting for the day I can mend your aching heart (ooh-ooh-ooh) I
will find my
way back home to you (mmmmm)
