[al:The Last Morning]
[00:02.21]Sweet little Beth
[00:02.90]who thought nothing of time,
[00:05.04]kissed the young man who stood
[00:06.62]outside her door every night.
[00:09.55]He had said he'd never leave her
[00:11.64]nor sail on their wedding day.
[00:17.24]For the wife of a soldier
[00:18.82]who fought in the war,
[00:21.02]"every man for himself" or for her.
[00:23.46]Empty words on the streets
[00:27.31]from the ships that return
[00:29.27]he'd be back for the sweetheart he loves
[00:36.85]Letters in frames
[00:38.20]told the evergreen tale
[00:40.14]of the young hero's life
[00:42.32]and his bride left behind.
[00:44.63]With a child she swore to bring up,
[00:47.88]Beth agreed to another hand.
[00:52.29]For the wife of a soldier
[00:54.66]who fought in the war,
[00:56.52]"every man for himself" or for her.
[00:58.86]Empty words on the streets
[01:02.78]from the ships that return
[01:04.97]he'd be back for the sweetheart he loves
[01:08.24]he'd be back for the sweetheart he loves
[01:39.99]Scarred season arms
[01:41.47]pulled her young son aboard,
[01:43.66]who'd forgotten to read
[01:45.98]the duty he signed up for.
[01:47.81]Hear the cry of dear old Beth
[01:50.08]who now grieves by the empty shore.
[01:52.45]For the wife of a soldier
[01:57.48]who fought in the war,
[01:59.74]"every man for himself" or for her.
[02:02.45]Empty words on the streets
[02:06.07]from the ships that return

[02:14.61]For the wife of a soldier
[02:16.88]who fought in the war,
[02:19.06]"every man for himself" or for her.
