The package

In '42 they fell in love
Love at first sight
In '43 they walked the aisle
A groom and his bride
In '44 he went to war
To fight for Uncle Sam
How it tore his heart apart
He missed his precious Anne
And when the doorbell rang
You know it scared her so
They handed her the package
And this is what he wrote
Here's a little something
To help you get through
I know it ain't much
But it was all that I could do
My heart is with you
And you know I love you still
Until I'm holding you again
Love will
In '63 he was out of town
All flights delayed
20 years of marriage
All the kids were home that day
He did the best he could
With the phone lines jammed
How it tore his heart apart
He missed his precious Anne
And when the doorbell rang
You know it scared her so
They handed her the package
And this is what he wrote
Here's a little something
To help you get through
I know it ain't much
But it was all that I could do
My heart is with you
And you know I love you still
Until I'm holding you again
Love will
Just a single long stemmed rose
With his letter tucked inside
To show her she was in his heart
Forever on his mind
'93 he was holding on
With all his might
He gave her one last wink
And then he passed on in the night
Bill knew his time was short
So he had a little plan
He was saving something special
For his precious Anne
And when the doorbell rang
Those old familiar notes
They handed her the package
And this is what he wrote
Here's a little something
To help you get through
I know it ain't much
But it was all that I could do
My heart is with you
And you know I love you still
Until I'm holding you again
Love will
(Love always will)
Until I'm holding you again
Love will
