Lyrics
Verse 1:
All alone
'till I found you
my tour of duty
almost through
in desert winds
and stormy skies
I found the beauty
lost in your eyes
Pre-Chorus:
and I held your hand
it was there we made our stand
sounds of war both near and far
on the streets of Kandahar
on those streets of Kandahar
Chorus:
In the back of my tank
we fell in love
exploding rockets
the heavens above
That night time stood still
oh, babe, it was not a drill
didn't even know
your name or rank
ya, in the back of my tank
oh, babe, in the back of that tank
Verse 2:
We made it home
both safe and sound
much was lost
but much was found
and I still hold your hand
without words you understand
Pre-Chorus:
I came, I conquered
to Uncle Sam I do thank
life changed forever
that night in the tank
oh, one night in the tank
ya, that night in the tank
Chorus:
In the back of my tank
we fell in love
exploding rockets
the heavens above
That night time stood still
oh, babe, it was not a drill
didn't even know your name or rank
ya, in the back of my tank
oh, in the back of that tank
ya, in the back of my tank
ya, in the back of my tank
