Missing in Action (在行动中消失) - The Hit Crew (热歌组合)[00:00:00]
The warship had landed and night come ashore[00:00:11]
The fighting was over for me ever more[00:00:17]
For I had been wounded they left me forget[00:00:25]
A stone for my pillow and snow for my bed[00:00:32]
The enemy found me and took me[00:00:40]
Away and made me a prisoner[00:00:44]
Of war so they say[00:00:50]
But God in his mercy was with me one day[00:00:55]
The gate was left open and I ran away[00:01:01]
I returned to the old home my sweet wife to see[00:01:09]
The home I had built for my darling and me[00:01:15]
The door I then opened and there on the stand[00:01:24]
I saw a picture of her and the man[00:01:30]
The clothes she was wearing told me the sad tale[00:01:38]
My darling was wearing a new bridal veil[00:01:45]
Then I found a letter and these words[00:01:53]
I read missing in action she thought I was dead[00:01:57]
So I kissed her picture and whispered goodbye[00:02:07]
My poor heart was breaking but my eyes were dry[00:02:14]
I knew it was too late for her now to learn[00:02:22]
I knew she must never know I had returned[00:02:28]
A vagabond dreamer forever I'll roam[00:02:37]
Because there was no one to welcome me home[00:02:43]
The face of my darling no more[00:02:51]
I shall see for missing in action forever I'll be[00:02:55]
