[00:20.61] Fifteen months, first deployment
[00:24.80] I figured he'd be back by June
[00:31.41] Just a little late to meet his baby
[00:36.25] Thinking of it now makes me swoon.
[00:42.57] Thinking of it now makes me swoon.
[00:48.42] Sweep the house and run my errands
[00:54.08] Fill my day with lists of things to do
[00:59.02] Seems like every moment's filled with thinking
[01:04.43] Of a different way to tell him 'I love you'.
[01:10.83] Of a different way to tell him 'I love you'.
[01:24.55] Midnight and the candle in the kitchen
[01:30.26] Flickers once and rises clear and bright
[01:35.99] Hugs and tears, white lies and bedtime stories
[01:41.74] Questions without answers, wrong or right.
[01:47.66] Questions without answers, wrong or right.
[02:01.95] The first will be around again on Monday
[02:06.02] Another month that we'll be overdue
[02:13.06] He fights a lonely war out in a desert
[02:18.90] He fights a war to pay a mortgage too.
[02:30.08] The envelope is worn where it's been handled
[02:35.76] I read the letter nearly every night
[02:41.65] Sometimes I just hold it in my fingers
[02:46.47] Or pressed between my palms with all my might.
[02:53.84] Or pressed between my palms with all my might.
[03:04.49] I declare
[03:15.37] I declare
[03:24.80] Lord, I am scared
[03:34.61] I declare
[03:58.96] Sometimes when the distance dances heavy
[04:03.89] And the danger looms above me where I lay
[04:09.75] I know it's only his for that I'm worried
[04:14.30] While I am safe and he is far away.
[04:21.55] While I am safe and you're so far away.
