Catching this moment in a mirror

Dreaming this emotion has a chance

Tasting the salt that carries all the pain

Wanting this moment to last

Knowing this moment can’t last


You in my heart & in this ocean

Walking & feeling all my weight

Wanting my spirit just to lift away

Over these mountains to you

Over this pain to what is true

(REF)
And soldier me, I am strong

You in my heart you belong

But soldier me, I feel nothing

Holding the hand that sets me free

Holding the hand that is me.


Gliding through years within an instant

I am here to pander to your needs

Catching my heart within a second

Suddenly brought to my knees, wish I could live on my knees


Precious I feel the room is changing

Warm the glimmer of a flame
High just flying on imagination

Slowly I whisper your name

Slowly I whisper your name

(REF)

And soldier me, I am strong

You in my heart you belong

But soldier me, I feel nothing

Holding the hand that sets me free

Holding the hand that is 

me. (answer)


I’ve lived so many changes

Cared for you all the time

Free, (answer)

This love should be allowed to breath

Here’s how I pay for my crime.

(REF)

Soldier me, I am strong

You in my heart you belong

But soldier me, I feel nothing

Holding the hand that sets me free

Holding the hand that is me.
