Soldier Lyrics by Harriet

Tell the Right Story

2012

[Verse]
They know they won't get back
Before it starts to rain
The Paris sky had cracked
There was no other way

[Verse]
That day the war was won
The States had called him home
He’d get to meet his son
But the mother was not the one he'd loved

[Chorus]
And you, you're not in most memories
And you, you’re not in my fantasy
But you, you're standing beside me now
Hey, you, babe you're alright with me
You're alright with me

[Verse]
He sold American cars
But had peculiar taste in movies
Nothing could beat Renoir
Which was odd for a boy from Iota
All the other salesmen called him queer
They said, "Why you always gotta act better than the rest of us?
Just cos we ain't got that shit here
Doesn't mean I don't know that
Renoir was a painter"

[Chorus]
And you, you're not in most memories
And you, you’re not in my fantasy
But you, you’re standing beside me now
Hey, you, babe you're alright with me
You’re alright with me

[Verse]
Now in the doctor's bed
His wife is watching him turn over
She knew this wasn't him
But she loved him just like a soldier

[Outro]
My little soldier
My little soldier
My little soldier
My little soldier of love

My little soldier
My little soldier
My little soldier
My little soldier of love

You're alright
