Don't Cry Hoshi
Tucker please say you will wait for me
I'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true
Hoshi was the girl who lived next door
I've know her I guess five years or more
Hoshi wrote me a note one day
And this is what she had to say
Tucker please say you will wait for me
I'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true
Slowly I read her note once more
Then I went over to the room next door
Her teardrops fell like rain that day
When I told Hoshi what I had to say
Hoshi, Hoshi please don't cry
You'll forget me by-and-by
You're just an ensign I'm a commander
And Hoshi I just can't wait for you
Soon I left our Enterprise
Got me a job and tried to settle down
But these words kept haunting my memory
The words that Hoshi said to me
Tucker please say you will wait for me
I'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true
I packed my clothes and I caught a shuttle
I had to see Hoshi I had to explain
How my heart was filled with her memories
And ask my Hoshi if she'd marry me
I ran all the way to the room next door
But things weren't like they were before
My teardrops fell like rain that day
When I heard what Hoshi had to say
Tucker, Tucker please don't cry
You'll forget me by-and-by
It's been five years since you've been gone
Tucker I married your best friend John
