I pretend someday it'll end
What are we fighting for
Countless drills sharpens our skills
Everytime we hit the floor
Then one day out on patrol
I met a man soon to be betrothed
Not from my side but just like me
Trying to get home to his family
Sleepless night real men don't cry
Don't wanna be alone anymore
I'm sick and tired down to the wire
Will somebody else fight this war
Then they tell us that it's time to go
This country's good they'll be fine on their own
Pack up my things and wipe my eyes
That's right baby I'm coming home tonight!
Walking the streets riddled with bullets
Taking refuge from despair and fear
Praying to God please help me through this
There's just three words that I want to hear.
Please tell me baby indulge my heart
Do those words remain the same from the very start
Seven years is a long time to be apart
But I need to hear it from you
She said I Love You.
3000 miles to see your smile
Can't wait to get off this plane
It's been too long but now I'm back
And it's never gonna be the same
All the letters you wrote to me I've kept
Telling me you love me as if I'd forget
I wasn't with you by your bedside
Still blew you two kisses before I slept.
I remember the day they called my name
You said baby just come back safe
I was scared inside wiped the tears from your eyes
I promised I'd be back one day
Baby I'm coming back to you
And you answered the door right on cue
Our kisses lasted for a lifetime
Don't worry baby I'm home this time!
Walking the streets riddled with bullets
Taking refuge from despair and fear
Praying to God please help me through this
There's just three words that I want to hear.
Please tell me baby indulge my heart
Do those words remain the same from the very start
Seven years is a long time to be apart
But I need to hear it from you
She said I Love You.
Finally I'm at your bedside
No need to blow you a kiss
No more wishing that I'd be next to you
Doesn't get better than this
Now things are back to the way it should
And I came back like I promised you I would
I'll never leave you no not again
I'm staying here with you until the end
Still can't believe that I'm back home now
It all just seems surreal
Got this chance to do this right
It's time to seal the deal
I remember the day that I met you
Fell into my arms out of the blue
Now I'm asking down on one knee
Please baby will you marry me?
Walking the aisle with a big full smile
Because Our day is finally here
And I thank God that we're both here today
There's just Two words that I want to here
Yes I do take her to be
My wife for all of eternity
I turned to her as she was asked the same
And she answered right on cue
She said I Do

As a former millitary wife...this one is my favorite. You have talent. :)
