Lyrics/Info:
Well it's cold outside tonight
She's got his favorite shirt on sitting by the fire
But there's tears in her eyes
cause she's wondering why
she hasn't heard from him tonight
But he's a thousand miles home
And he swears it's the last time
he's gonna ever leave her all alone
But late that night he reads the bittersweet words on the phone
that read
Now your on your own

I don't mean to make you cry
But this is my first goodbye
And I'm praying it will be my last
My heart was trying to tell you so
That I was gonna let you go
But it all just went by way too fast
Now I'm sitting all alone With a heart that's as cold as stone
And it feels just like I could die
I'm hoping you forgive me dear
But I've already cried my tears
So this is my last goodbye

Well he's half a world away
He's a young man who's fighting just to save the day
But He can almost taste coming home
It's soon they say
Back here in Arlington
There's a proud anxious mother waiting for her son
But suddenly a knock comes on the door from two gentlemen
And she cries
No not my son

I'm sorry but I have to cry
This isn't my first goodbye
But I'm praying it will be my last
It really wasn't long ago
I was watching my little boy grow
Into a fine young man
Now he's gone and I'm alone
There's nothing left but this cold hard stone
And it feels like part of me just died
Yesterday he called here
He said to me please don't fear
And this was the last goodbye
