Our Freedom
Our Freedom
We were made for each other
I still dream of you when I close my eyes....
Our hearts still beating together....
Looking at wedding pictures of you and I....
I still think you’ll walk through our door....
Even though I know you cant do that....
You were protecting our country on sand that was your floor....
None of you in that truck lived after the attack....
I will always keep your memory with me....
Honey I am still very proud of all our soldiers....
Freedom for us is what they still fight for you see....
Seven years they still fight and die for this war....
I still think its time for them to come home....
So many families everyday breaking....
For the ones who wont make it back home....
The news says terrorist are weaking....
I sure hope that is true....
So many soldiers have fallen....
On our second tour its been you....
I know everyone of you went to heaven....
