Written by Jedd HughesTerry McBride and Jennifer Kimball
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
Chorus:
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
Repeat chorus
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
