[bodytext] => When the smoke dissolves into the air When the gunshots no longer echo in the night When the wounds are being mended and healed When you and all the soldiers return home Only then will I rest easy I don’t want to see your face on the news I don’t want to see your name in the paper I don’t want to see a flag cover your coffin being lowered into the ground I just want you to come back home You can have the honor You can have the glory You can have all of it, without having to loose your life You can have the life you dreamed of, if you just ask I have stayed by your side supporting you through it all Whether you wanted me to or not A piece of me is with you And you are a huge part of me So I sit here wondering and worrying How are you and are you okay? Do you think of me half as often as I think about you? Will you come back home safely? When the smoke dissolves into the air When the gunshots no longer echo in the night When the wounds are being mended and healed When you and al the soldiers return home Only then will I rest easy Knowing now you are back home safe.
