Story Behind The Song
The first three lines of the chorus are from a letter written by a civil war soldier to his sweetheart a week before he died in battle: "I'm so tired I can hardly write/I'll say a prayer for you tonite/How I miss you no man could tell".

Lyrics
Chorus:
I'm so tired I can hardly write
I'll say a prayer for you tonite
How I miss you no man can tell
Being here without you is the worst kind of hell
I hope the stars shine down on you tonite
And you remember us in the moonlight
But every battle leaves it's scar
So I'll dream of where you are
CHORUS
The wind blows lonesome I can hear your voice
Separated by these miles with no choice
Every battle leaves it's scar
So I'll dream of where you are
CHORUS
