Soldier in a Frame
I was in an antique store on the Mississippi River
Killin' time waitin' on my show
To sing songs that they don't know
In that store are things I'll never need
But it's sure nice to see 'em
Get another life
Then a young man caught my eye
Seven years from 25
Who am I looking at
There's no name written on the back
A uniform in white and black
Where did you have to go
And did you ever make it home
I hate that I don't know
But ten bucks got me two in change
And a soldier in a frame
I put out an APB on the internet
Lookin' for someone who could see
The eyes of family
But winter came and came around again
I'll see this through the end
But I shouldn't be his only friend
Who am I looking at
There's no name written on the back
A uniform in white and black
Where did you have to go
And did you ever make it home
I hate that I don't know
I wish that I could take some of your pain
Soldier in a frame
Who am I lookin' at
I'm just trying to give you back
Who am I looking at
There's no name written on the back
A uniform in white and black
Where did you have to go
And did you ever make it home
I hate that I don't know
I'm prayin' that there's someone to reclaim
Yeah there's gotta be someone who knows your name
Soldier in a frame
Killin' time waitin' on my show
To sing songs that they don't know
In that store are things I'll never need
But it's sure nice to see 'em
Get another life
Then a young man caught my eye
Seven years from 25
Who am I looking at
There's no name written on the back
A uniform in white and black
Where did you have to go
And did you ever make it home
I hate that I don't know
But ten bucks got me two in change
And a soldier in a frame
I put out an APB on the internet
Lookin' for someone who could see
The eyes of family
But winter came and came around again
I'll see this through the end
But I shouldn't be his only friend
Who am I looking at
There's no name written on the back
A uniform in white and black
Where did you have to go
And did you ever make it home
I hate that I don't know
I wish that I could take some of your pain
Soldier in a frame
Who am I lookin' at
I'm just trying to give you back
Who am I looking at
There's no name written on the back
A uniform in white and black
Where did you have to go
And did you ever make it home
I hate that I don't know
I'm prayin' that there's someone to reclaim
Yeah there's gotta be someone who knows your name
Soldier in a frame
