He put so much into her life

she took so much out of his

it was a crucial assignment

No-one ever asked for this.

It was a little confusing

He thought he knew what to do 

but now they're walking in silence

little girl, and soldier blue

Well she wrote you a song saying that she approved

but you didn't understand

and when love comes along it's just a Catcher in The Rye

it's hard to make those long term plans.

Well it's the code of love

you don't understand her.

Well  it's the code of love

you could never ask  for more.

They made a certain agreement

he's bound to do what he's told

he ran back home with the message

screwed up in a pocket cold.

She sat at home with her reason

a sour note and a tear

but love comes home for the season

breaking down the walls of fears.

Well it's the code of love

you don't understand her.

Well  it's the code of love

you could never ask  for more.
