Intro: Verse 1: It was written that I would love you From the moment I opened my eyes And the morning when I first saw you Gave me life under Calico skies. I will hold you For as long as you like I'll hold you For the rest of my life Verse 2: Always looking for ways to love you Never failing to fight at your side While the angels of love protect us From the innermost secrets we hide Chorus Verse 3: Long live all of us, crazy soldiers Who were born under Calico skies May we never be called to handle All the weapons of war we despise Chorus Outro: I'll hold you For as long as you like I'll love you For the rest of my, for the rest of my life
