What ever happened to that smile on your face? Has it traveled out far to a foreign place? I'll never forget that look in your eyes, As we both shook hands and said our goodbyes, And I still remember what you said to me, That you still loved me but we just couldn't be, Maybe someday I will call on you again, And maybe just maybe then we can be friends I cried that day a young man of nineteen, I had a broken heart and a low self-esteem, Chorus I told her I'd change for her I'd do anything, I'd buy her a house and give her a ring, If She'd stay right here right by my side, And go along with me on this wild ride, I told her that if we couldn't be, Then there was nothing left here for me, I tried to tell myself that I'd be Ok that it was just one day and it would go away, But for some reason I couldn't explain I hopped on a plane And tried run away from all of my pain, So headed to the army to try and clear my brain, However I couldn't make as a soldier, I'm Lover not fighter its what I always told her, And now I realize that as I lay here on this desert sand, With a hole in my chest and a gun in my hand, Why couldn't she just understand? Chorus Why couldn't she just understand? That I'm a Lover not a fighter, And all I ever did was love her……
