Each Night At Nine

A thousand miles dear a thousand more across the water across the shore

I'll say a prayer dear for your and mine please think of me dear each night at nine

I hold your picture close to my heart it takes your place dear while we're apart

Helps remind me that you're still mine to feel your nearness each night at nine

The bugle's playing out goes the light gee but it's lonely these army nights

Please tell kiddies I'm doing fine give them my love dear each night at nine

A thousand miles dear a thousand more...
