This is the tale of an unfinished love story,
Tales of battle, honor, and glory.
The stories of war,
With a fierce battle cry, the men let out a mighty roar.

This is the untold love story,
The heart of a soldier surviving, hoping to get home.
For when I get home, there is one I must save and one I must ****.

Each day, I pray I don't die,
On the battlefield, all I can think of is your smile.
The stench of death covers my body,
Will I make it home? This thought makes me worry.

After the battle of the mountain, we were ambushed,
We thought we had won, but the enemy played us like fools.
I managed to survive but without a weapon.

Oh, it's so cold, and my lips are dry,
I drank my last water six days ago, I don't think I'll survive.
Oh, darling, I miss your smile,
I wish I could kiss you once more before I die.

Tales of the unfinished love story,
The tears of mine only.
