It was two weeks after the day she turned eighteen All dressed in white, goin' to the church that night She had his box of letters in the passenger seat Six pence in a shoe, somethin' borrowed, somethin' blue And when the church doors opened up wide She put her veil down, tryin' to hide the tears Oh, she just couldn't believe it She heard the trumpets from the military band And the flowers fell out of her hands Chorus Baby, why'd you leave me? Why'd you have to go? I was countin' on forever, now I'll never know I can't even breathe It's like I'm lookin' from a distance, standin' in the background Everybody's sayin', he's not cormin' home now This can't be happenin' to me This is just a dream The preacher man said, "Let us bow our heads and pray" Lord, please lift his soul and heal this hurt Then the congregation all stood up and sang The saddest song that she ever heard And then they handed her a folded up flag And she held on to all she had left of him Oh, and what could've been And then the guns rang one last shot And it felt like a bullet in her heart Repeat Chorus Ooh, baby, why'd you leave me? Why'd you have to go? I was countin' on forever, now I'll never know Oh, I'll never know Repeat Chorus Oh, this is just a dream It's just a dream, yeah, yeah
