Missing my soldier.............

Derrick and I started talking awhile ago and we clicked from the beginning, when he got his vacation the end of august he flew me out to Cali to spend time with him, and took me to Yosemite. We had an amazing time!! I know it may be to soon to start dateing after being with Stephen and all but, honestly, I've never felt so happy...and so much pain all at once, i've never dated a military man and having him in Iraq is even harder. He calls me every chance he can get and i always get these cute little packages in the mail, he's away till February and than here for a year and than back to Iraq for another year, after that he wants out of the military and to settle down... it works out good, it gives us time to really get to know one another and know what we are both about..which is great, however, it's really hard knowing somoene you care about is so far away, and you never know when they will come home... or if...
I put away the groceries
And I take my daily bread
I dream of your arms around me
As I tuck the kids in bed
I don't know what you're doin'
And I don't know where you are
But I look up at that great big sky
And I hope you're wishin' on that same
bright star
I wonder, I pray
[Chorus:]
And I sleep alone
I cry alone
And it's so hard livin' here on my own
So please, come home soon
(Come home soon)
I know that we're together
Even though we're far apart
And I'll wear our lucky penny 'round my neck
Pressed to my heart
I wonder, I pray
[Repeat Chorus]
[Bridge:]
I still imagine your touch
It's beautiful missing something that much
But sometimes love needs a fighting chance
So I'll wait my turn until it's our turn to dance
I wonder, I pray
[Second Chorus:]
I sleep alone
I cry alone
Without you this house is not a home
So please, come home soon
[Third Chorus:]
I walk alone
I try alone
I'll wait for you, don't want to die alone
So please, come home soon
Come home soon
Come home soon
