He put so much into her life
She took so much out of his
It was a crucial assignment
No one ever asked for thisIt was a little confusin'
He thought, he knew what to do
But now they're walkin' in silence
Little girl and soldier blueWell, she wrote you a song, sayin' 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 plansWell, it's the code of love
You don't understand her
Well, it's the code of love
You could never ask for more
You could never ask for moreThey 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 coldShe sat at home with her reason
A sour note and a tear
But love comes home for the season
Breakin' down the walls of fearsWell, she wrote you a song sayin' 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 plansWell, it's the code of love
You don't understand her
Well, it's the code of love
You could never ask for more
You could never ask for moreWell, it's the code of love
You don't understand her
Well, it's the code of love
You don't understand herCode of love
Code of love
Code of love
