My dear now look at what you've done

Were you only thinking of number one?


You never stop to consider numbers two and three You never stop to consider your mother and me

Now in a few days

You'll be on a plane flying miles away from me

You're stationed overseas

And now that you've signed the dotted line

Is it really too late to change your mind?

You should really think it over if it's not too late

You should really think it over for your own sake Your mother's a mess

But she'll get it together, now do what's best for you

And maybe this country of ours too

We always knew you'd leave

But we never thought the day would come so soon It's so hard to believe

That the day has come to live on without you

And we shouldn't ever have to
