It was written that I would love you
   From the moment I opened my eyes
   And the morning when I first saw you
   Gave me life under calico skies
   I will hold you for as long as you like
   I'll hold you for the rest of my life
  
   Always looking for ways to love you
   Never failing to fight at your side
   While the angels of love protect us
   From the innermost secrets we hide
   I'll hold you for as long as you like
   I'll hold you for the rest of my life
  
   Long live all us crazy soldiers who were born under calico skies
   May we never be called to handle
   All the weapons of war we despice
   I'll hold you for as long as you like
   I'll hold you for the rest of my life
   I'll hold you for as long as you like
   I'll hold you for the rest of my...
   For the rest of my life
