I can still see your eyes
Hear your terrified voice
Feel your shaking hands
But you said as long as it would keep me safe
My heart is breaking
But I'm proud of you
I'm honored to have a person like you in my life
My tears will fall till the day
I see you home safe
My prayers won't stop
Till I see you again
My chest feels empty
My head is screaming
My spirit is saddened
I want so badly to see you again
Just to let you know how much you mean to me
To let you know how much I think about you
You are the first and last thing I think about before bed
And the first and only thing the next day
I am so afraid to lose you
Your voice keeps playing in my head
"At least I know I'm doing it for you,
You and all my friends
That's what's important
That you be safe that's all I'm worried about"
I never knew you even cared till that moment
Now I don't want to lose you
I look up to the sky every night and I pray
Do you hear me?
I cry each night you are there
Do you hear me?
My heart aches for you
Can you
