Letters From the War of Love and Loss

I was a pitiful young man
I did the best, I did everything I can
All I wanted was your hand
I needed someone to love

So let me tell you about sweet Annalee
She did whatever with me as she pleased
Saw our story in the stars above
Turns out I was just a fool who fell in love

So if you need me honey, then you'll see
You share a little in my misery
Cause every heart bears a lover's cross
These are my letters from the war of love and loss

So I went travelin' far and wide
Looking for lovers to satiate my pride
But all their kisses could not compare to you
So I kept moving along

Well if you need me honey, then you'll see
You share a little in my misery
Cause every heart bears a lover's cross
These are my letters from the war of love and loss

(Instrumental)

Well I've stopped waiting for the phone to ring
I pawned off that old diamond ring
Cause every kiss we shared had a cost
These are my letters from the war of love and loss

Oh la dee da dee
Oh la dee da doh
Oh la dee da dee
Oh la dee da doh
Oh la dee da dee
Oh la dee da doh
Oh la dee da dee
Oh la dee da doh
Oh la dee da dee
Oh la dee da doh
Oh la dee da dee
Oh la dee da doh

Well if you need me honey, then you'll see
You share a little in my misery
Cause every heart bears a lover's cross
These are my letters from the war of love and loss

Well if you need me honey, then you'll see
You share a little in my misery
Cause every heart bears a lover's cross
These are my letters from the war of love and loss
