I am a soldier Trained and conditioned Served my time But I didn't choose this mission Fighting a war I think I'm the only Solider for the lonely I have been wounded Under fire But it's not deterred Or weakened my desire To defend them 'Cause I'm the only Solider for the lonely For every heart that's been broken For every kind word left unspoken Every promise not remembered I'll not forget I'll not surrender 'Cause I'm the only Soldier for the lonely Here in the trenches No sanctuary Nights are long And solitary Nobody holds me 'Cause I'm the only Soldier for the lonely For every heart that's been broken For every kind word left unspoken Every promise not remembered I'll not forget I'll not surrender 'Cause I'm the only Soldier for the lonely For every heart that's been broken For every kind word left unspoken Every promise not remembered I'll not forget I'll not surrender 'Cause I'm the only Soldier for the lonely I'll plant a rose I'll shed a tear I'll die alone No one to hear My battle cry 'Cause I'm the only Soldier for the lonely I'm the only Soldier for the lonely
