Five Weeks from RADIO DAYS by Dan Sullivan

Maggie lived in a house down by the sea
Where she'd walk along the beach and think of me
At least that's what her letters used to say
You see I haven't heard from Maggie in five weeks

I was just 18 a year ago
When I loved and lived with Maggie on the coast
Til the Army called and took me from our home
And I remember how she cried to see me go

I've seen the shattered faces around me
Of the men who look like me
Waiting for a letter
Then dying as they read
Maggie, Maggie, Maggie

Now I'm sure that he's handsome and more fun than me
Cause how much fun is a soldier across the sea
Still it breaks my heart to think of what used to be
And I haven't heard from Maggie in five weeks
