Six months
Don't seem like a long time travelling the world
And six months

Don't seem like a long time as the seasons turn
But six months
Seems like a lifetime waiting for your atue


Counting down the days
Soldier


Waiting
But times moving slower then a rainy day

Waiting
To wake in the morning just to hear them say
That maybe

The fighting is over and you won't be far away

Counting down the days

Soldier

Counting on love strong and true

Counting on faith to carry through
Counting on all the other men just like you
Counting on this world to just commend

Counting on this wasted war to end
Counting on the holding you and the loving you I get


And I'm counting down the days
Soldier


Loving
Comes very easily when you take a sacred vowel
Loving

Been hating the reason why and when and how
Cos' all I want is to have you flying home to me right now


Counting down the days
Soldier


Counting on love strong and true
Counting on faith to carry through
Counting on all the other men just like you

Counting on this world to just commend
Counting on this wasted war to end
Counting on the holding you and the loving you I get


And I'm counting down the days
Soldier


Counting on love strong and true
Counting on faith to carry through

Counting on all the other men just like you
Counting on this world to just commend
Counting on this wasted war to end

Counting on the holding you and the loving you I get

And I'm counting down the days

Soldier

Six months

Seems like a lifetime waiting for your return

Counting down the days

Soldier
Counting down the days
Soldier
