When I first came into Saigon, I was a lonely soldier on leave
In the boonies the battles were raging but for a short time I was free
I met her there in Saigon; her name was Miung Sun Lee
And there's not another like her in that land far across the sea
Her lips more precious than rubies, her eyes warm as summer skies
Love found and bound us together, Miung Sun Lee and I
We lived each precious moment, we loved both night and day
For time stands still for no one, soon I'd be going away
My outfit moved out of Saigon back to the front lines
As a soldier I was bound to duty, but I left my heart behind
All through the raging battles, I could feel her by my side
I knew that she would be waiting, somehow I must stay alive
They carried me back into Saigon, my broke body to mend
Suffering with pain, but happy knowing I'd see her again
But nowhere there in Saigon could Miung Sun Lee be found
For she had gone north to be with me, and she died near the battleground
And that's why I'll never leave here; this land is a part of me
I'll stay here and do what I must do till its war-torn people are free
And as I climb the hillside looking north to the battle ground
Where Miung Sun Lee is waiting that's where I'm bound
