The room is dark,
she sits alone,
the images flash on t.v.
The kids are in bed now,
friends have gone home,
and her mommy sleeps in the chair.
It\'s late at night
quiet and still
images flash through her mind.
The day they met
the day they married
the day he took his oath.
Her heart fills with pride,
her tears flow unchecked,
as the images flash on t.v.
Pride collides with sadness and terror
as she waits in the dark
for news about her hero...
