Soldiers Safely Return Home

My hearts been exercised a lot From the beating that won't stop Getting faster when I see Loving eyes staring at me Or breaking each time you go And I hit an all time low Until you are back again Not liking where you have been But there's nothing I can do Because our red, white and blue Will stay safe as you defend Our country until the end Of each war that makes me cry Praying that you will not die And come back to me so safe I want to see your loving face Step off that plane with the others Who decided to be soldiers And protect the U.S.A. Prayers are sent they'll be O.K. Returning from another war Walking through their families door
