That day that you walked out the front door
Saying sweetie I'll soon be back from the war
The clouds turned to gray as you left me to stay
My mind wont forget the pain I felt that day
Days turn to months, then soon to years
Every night I try to hide my drowning tears
My hope slowly fades with each passing day
Each evening I sit and to God I pray
I hate this feeling of being alone
And not knowing when you will come home
The battle has no hint of coming to an end
My heart will take forever to heal and mend
Your face turns to a blur, as my memory fades
The pain of this loss, hurts like razor blades
Trying to remember the love of your touch
Holding on to the reason why I love you so much
Waiting and hoping for you to walk through that door
To hold me in your arms and love me forever more
Nervously awaiting the news of your arrival
Waiting for word of your hopefull survival
