Soldiers of Love

Tromping through the trenches of life
We have to emphatically make ourselves fall in love
Over and over and over and over and over again
For we begin to fall out of it if we do not make it a daily mantra

We must polish up our weapons, and have them at the ready
Enthusiastic gleaning of things I Ioved about him in the first place
All of the wonderful things he has done for me year after year
I take out the photo albums and reminisce

We get our orders from the big guy in the sky
Who wants us to honor our commitment,
We fight for our union,
the one we pledged we would honor forever.
We are soldiers of love.
