One two, one two
Step in time, step in time
March away, march away
I promise I'll be fine

Fine without you when you're gone
And far away from me
Say it once, say it twice
And true these words will be.

I'll think of you in Air Force blues,
I'll think about it all
Stepping lively, stepping true
My soldier standing tall

I promise I won't cry for you
Well…
I promise that I'll try
Not a tear, and not a sound
As two months pass on by

You know these words are all for you
But also, they're for me
Foolish maybe, selfish too
Can't change the way I see

But know I'll always love you
Until the very end
You are my heart, my other half
My hero, my best friend

So, one two, one two
Step in time, step in time
Back to me, back to me
Pretty soldier mine.
I cried anyway.
