Waiting for you

Underneath the northern lights,
I gaze at the sky above,
Each day brings a memory,
Of the soldier I truly love.
The days become long and lonley,
But my heart beats strong and true,
With every whispered promise,
I’m always waiting for you.
Chorus
Oh, I’m holding on,
Through the nights so cold and grey,
Counting every moment,
Till you’re here, home to stay.
In this land of bravery,
With courage shining bright,
I’ll be here, my soldier
Waiting for you tonight.
Verse 2
The children laugh and play outside,
But I feel something is missing,
With every call and letter,
Your presence is what I’m wishing.
I play my dreams over and over,
With hope as my guide,
Every heartbeat tells me, again and again
You’re always by my side.
Chorus
Oh, I’m holding on,
Through the nights so cold and grey,
Counting every moment,
Till you’re home to stay.
In this land of bravery,
With courage shining bright,
I’ll be here, my soldier,
Waiting for you tonight.
Bridge
And when the day is over,
I’ll light a candle and let it glow,
For every soldier’s journey,
Bringing them back home.
With strength in our hearts,
And love that never fades,
I’ll stand here forever,
In the promises we made.
Chorus
Oh, I’m holding on,
Through the nights so cold and grey,
Counting every moment,
Till you’re home to stay.
In this land of bravery,
With courage shining bright,
I’ll be here, my soldier,
Waiting for you tonight.
Outro
So when the door swings open,
And I see your face again,
I’ll wrap you in my arms,
And hold you once again.
In this life of love and longing,
You’re in my heart, my guiding light,
Forever and always I’ll be waiting,
Till you’re home with me and all is
