[Verse 1: Brian]
Wanna be there just in time
Wanna be your shining knight
Protect you like a soldier
I wanna be the first in line
Be the one to save your life
All I wanna do is hold ya

[Pre-Chorus: Nick]
But somebody shot you down
Right in the middle of a war outside
Words mean so little
When you've heard those lies
You need someone to make you believe
Make you believe, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus: All]
I will be your soldier
I, I'll stand and fight until its over
Oh, and if your heart is getting colder
You know I will always be your soldier
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And if your heart is getting colder
You know I will always be your soldier

[Verse 2: AJ]
You don't have to hide your scars
I'll be there when you fall apart
And fix you like a soldier
You don't have to go to far
Baby just lay down your arms
Now that the battle's over

[Pre-Chorus: Nick]
But somebody shot you down
Right in the middle of a war outside
Words mean so little
When you've heard those lies
You need someone to make you believe
Make you believe, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus: All]
I will be your soldier
I, I'll stand and fight until its over
Oh, and if your heart is getting colder
You know I will always be your soldier
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And if your heart is getting colder
You know I will always be your soldier

[Interlude: All]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And if your heart is getting colder
You know I will always be your soldier

[Bridge: Howie]
Somebody shot you down
Right in the middle of the war outside
Words mean so little
When you've heard those lies
You need someone to make you believe
Make you believe

[Chorus: All, Brian & AJ]
I will be your soldier (I will, ooh)
I, I'll stand and fight until its over (over, yeah)
Oh, and if your heart is getting colder (you know, you know)
You know I will always be your soldier (soldier)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And if your heart is getting colder (heart is getting colder)
You know I will always be your soldier (soldier, soldier)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Outro: AJ, Brian & All]
I will always be soldier, oh yeah
And if your heart is getting colder (you know, you know)
You know I will always be your soldier

The Backstreet Boys are the most successful boy band in history, having sold over 130 million records worldwide, and with their first nine albums reaching the top 10 on the Billboard 200. Florida natives A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, and Nick Carter, along with Kentucky transplant Kevin Richardson, were joined in a band once they attended Lou Pearlman’s auditions for a vocal group in 1992, with the group being completed by Kevin’s cousin Brian Litrell. Once took under the wing of Swedish producer Max Martin in 1995, the stage was set for global domination, attracting the lust of women and the anger of men. While the fad died down and Kevin even left for a while, the band never officially took a break or such.
