Soldier of My Heart

All his bags are packed It is almost time I know Sobbing on his shoulder I don't want to let him go He takes me in his arms One last time he hugs me tight Promising he'll come home Reasuring me I'll be alright As he starts to walk away He turns to me once more Tears stream down my face as I stand there at the door I pray to God, keep him safe tightly in your arms Bring him home to me Safe from all the harm Forever is the length I'll wait all the time we are apart For I love him The soldier of my heart
