Where you belong

this was for a friend of mine thats in the military

Remembering when I kissed you goodbye as I watched you fly out of my life
Promising not to shed a tear, you know I was telling a lie
Praying for your safe return
No longer feeling the fire inside me burn
It’s only for your return home that I now yearn
Trying to kill all doubts of things that could go wrong
Staying happy for your family just to prove that I’m strong
Yet no one sees me when I’m all alone
Crying to sleep at night because here is where you belong
