James Joyce Soles Lyrics - Singles - Deacon Blue

Here`s the pictures 

I promised to send 

You see the airbase 

Where we were sent 

Now the winter 

Has started to descend 

Your loving son was sent here 

I got your letter 

From Boise Idaho 

To James Joyce Soles 

To James Joyce Soles 

I went down at midnight 

To the Holy Loch shore 

And scattered the ashes 

Of James Joyce Soles 

He knew the reasons 

Why we were here 

He loved your parcels 

And all your care 

You`re so thoughtful 

They`re so fair 

I know my friend thought so 

Was James Joyce Soles 

He`s not just a soldier 

He`s not just a friend 

He`s been in the wars 

In a foreign land 

He`s been on the payphone 

When it was so cold 

He was my comfort 

Was James Joyce Soles 

He was my comfort 

In a country so old 

He was my comfort 

Was James Joyce Soles
