You are so far away in miles, yet so close to my heart I cried out my soul the day we had to part.... I'll never forget the pain I felt that dreadful day When Uncle Sam took you away...... You are my life, my heart, my soul You are the one I can't let go You are the soul mate I finally found In life's horrible merry go round..... I await your return, for your embrace I yearn I miss your touch, your warmth, your smile Oh my gosh it's been awhile The anticipation drives me crazy A lot of life has become so hazy Hurry home, I miss you so So all of my fears I can let go The Easter bunny has come and gone And Santa left with the dawn Another birthday has gone by And still I keep saying I will try To hold all of this together Because it is you that has to weather The missed growing of our children The land your in is unforgiving War will take your heart your soul All this killing needs to go God sees all and will be there The day will come when he'll be fair He’ll make the pain and suffering go away But until then there is today...... You do your time and Ill do mine I know one day, all will be fine We were put here to do our part I just don’t think its fair that we have to be so far apart!
