Lyrics
I want you here in the desert babe
Right here in the sand
The moon is bright I think you just where I am
I wouldn't even need to take my boots off
We could do it as we stand
The missiles are flying all around us babe
One almost hit me in the leg
Come on over here honey
This uniform makes me to proud to beg
The water around here is scarce
But I've managed to ration a few drops for you
I hope you don't mind me writing
These daydream letters babe
The only happiness I have
is my correspondence with you
I miss you babe
See ya later
