It was written that I would love you 
From the moment I opened my eyes 
And the morning when I first saw you 
Gave me life under Calico skies.

Never failing to fight at your side 
While the angels of love protect us 
From the innermost secrets we hide

Who were born under Calico skies 
May we never be called to handle 
All the weapons of war we despise
