My Shining Soldier


You said you would be my shining star
Look into the night sky
I know where you are

When the sun goes down
It’s like losing you again
Fight. Fight. Fight with the darkness dad
Fight. Fight. I don’t want this night to end
Because then
We’d never have to say goodbye again

Oh daddy please
Tell me that you love me one more time
Oh daddy please
If you can’t say it
Then at least give me a sign

This is for you dad I’m going into battle
And I hope I come out alive
I know you’re not here now but I’m gonna make you proud
You were my favorite soldier

When the sun goes down
It’s like losing you again
fight fight  fight with the darkness dad
fight fight I don’t want this night to end
Because then
We’d never have to say goodbye again

You said you would be my shining star
Look into the night sky
I know where you are
