Off To War
As we are very close
As we would do anything for each other
As your always at my house
As your my only brother
The hardest thing that I ever had to do with you
Is to say good bye as you go.....off to war
Trying to explain why you had to leave to your very young niece and nephew
Not knowing if that good bye.....will be for ever
Waiting for the phone calls.....Just so we know your ok
Praying everyday for your safty
Praying everyday that the army don't come to my house....to tell us your not ever coming home alive
All those days and nights.....With tears that flow
Cause I am scarred for your safty
Cause I miss you so much
All I want is for you to be come home
When that solider comes home
Those relief tears takes over
All that praying worked
Cause God picked you as a lucky one and returned you home alive
When you were....Off to war
