Lyrics
[instrumental intro]
[Verse 1]
My dearest love, across the miles,
I pen these words, and dream your smiles,
The candle flickers, shadows dance,
In every line, my heart’s romance.
The war has called me far from home,
In foreign lands, I’m forced to roam,
But in each battle, your face I see,
Your love's the shield protecting me.
[instrumental solo]
[Chorus]
Ink and paper, hearts entwined,
Love in letters, souls combined,
Though the distance keeps us far,
Our love’s a never-fading star.
[instrumental solo]
[Verse 2]
My sweetest heart, your letter came,
In your warm prose, I feel no shame,
The night is cold, but love’s embrace,
Warms my spirit, fills this space.
Our son now walks, he calls my name,
I wait for home, my heart’s aflame,
I dream of days, when we'll be free,
Together for eternity.
[instrumental solo]
[Chorus]
Ink and paper, hearts entwined,
Love in letters, souls combined,
Though the distance keeps us far,
Our love’s a never-fading star.
[Verse 3]
My darling, know my heart is true,
In every word, I’m there with you,
The wind may howl, the night be long,
But in your love, I find my song.
Last night, the cannons roared so loud,
But in my dreams, you wore a shroud,
You whispered, “Soon, we’ll be as one,”
And in that thought, the battle’s won.
[hard metal breakdown]
[Chorus]
Ink and paper, hearts entwined,
Love in letters, souls combined,
Though the distance keeps us far,
Our love’s a never-fading star.
[instrumental solo]
[Outro]
One day we’ll stand, hand in hand,
No more letters, just love unplanned,
But until then, these words will do,
My heart, my soul, I send to you.
