文本歌词

It was two weeks after the day
she turned eighteen
All dressed in white
Going to the church that night
She had his box of letters
in the passenger seat
Six pence in a shoe
something borrowed, something blue
And when the church doors opened up wide
She put her veil down
Trying to hide the tears
Oh she just couldn't believe it
She heard the trumpets
from the military band
And the flowers
fell out of her hand
Baby why'd you leave me
Why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever
now I'll never know
I can't even breathe
It's like I'm
looking from a distance
Standing in the background
Everybody's saying
he's not coming home now
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream
The preacher man said
let us bow our heads and pray
Lord please lift his soul
and heal this hurt
Then the congregation
all stood up and sang
the saddest song that she ever heard
Then they handed her
a folded up flag
And she held on
to all she had left of him
Oh, and what could have been
And then the guns rang one last shot
And it felt like
a bullet in her heart
Baby why'd you leave me
Why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever
now I'll never know
I can't even breathe
It's like I'm
looking from a distance
Standing in the background
Everybody's saying
he's not coming home now
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream
Oh
Baby why'd you leave me
Why'd you have to go
I was counting on forever
now I'll never know
Oh, now I'll never know
It's like I'm
looking from a distance
Standing in the background
Everybody's saying
he's not coming home now
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream
Oh, this is just a dream
Just a dream
Yeah, Yeah
