Skinny Jean - Army Wife lyrics

I won't believe a word you've said Until I've seen his body dead My hands have worked until they've bled On the jagged jaws of the shells of lead I've been making arms; you've been losing yours I've turned my hand to the turning wheels of war Before our heads could hit out bed You took him away on the day we wed They hung a medal over his empty head They clapped so hard their hands were red And when I saw his body dead I wished that God'd taken me instead I see sails of sable on the sea-wind soar Like my body from the white cliffs on the shore
