I'd Do Anything (Soldier's Lament)

Tell me what you want girl, you tell me what you need.

You know you just say the word

I'll be right there, yes

I'll be right there at your feet because you know you rock girl yeah, and

I love how we roll - but

I left you all alone, all we got is the phone and it's never gonna be enough

Living in this dug-out a million miles away, man,

I wish they'd pad these walls, like an institution, man,

I'm going crazy because when

I'm away from you girl,

I lose myself, you know my train jumps off tracks and all my pots fall off the shelf.

Oh, I'd do anything, yeah, just to be with you, oh,

I'd do anything, oh just to be with you girl, be with you

It's a little girl's birthday and yeah, we are apart - ain't gonna make a big deal out of it but it breaks my heart

You tell her "Papa loves her" yeah, and it won't be too long, 'til we're all together again and yes you know we're all singing yes those songs.

I escape into my tv - yeah,

I know you understand

Man they call that **** reality,

I'd like to see those fools in

Afghanistan.

Living in this cold damn world, hell bent on self-destruction - what

I need right now is a little bit of love, a little bit of love and affection.

Oh, I'd do anything

Oh just to be with you,

Oh I'd do anything, oh just to be with you, girl

Just to be with you, just to be with you girl,

Be with you

Tell me what you want girl, you tell me what you need.

You know you just say the word

I'll be right there, yes

I'll be right there at your feet....
