You know that our parting breaks my heart.
I have never felt such sorrow.
All the love I have I leave with you.
I once promised 'til death do us part, and yet I'll be gone tomorrow.
Please believe me what I said was true
But when I go, I'm on my own.
The path I walk, I walk alone.
I face a bitter world with only memories to guide me.
I care more than I have ever cared.
Yet I know that I am leaving
You'll be in my heart my whole life through
And all the love I have I leave with you
You're a father, you've a family.
Your son needs you, don't ignore him.
Just to fight a war you cannot win
I hope my son will be proud of me
When I fight I'm fighting for him
Share the love I leave for you with him
And so we all must pay the price, for such a stupid sacrifice?
Don't you understand that this won't end til we let it.
When I'm gone you know I won't be back.
Mines a path that has no turning
Please believe me what I said was true.
That all the love I have, I leave with you
