Yesterday I saw a girl
Joyful with her tears
Her daddy just came back from war
It seemed like she hadn't seen him for years
As his steel boots sailed across the floor
He looks at his daughter forgetting those fears
Of all the days and nights he spent
In the Iraq War

Today I read in the news
two men surviving deadly bombs
Their wives exhilarated with joy
'cause both are expecting moms
Whether its a girl or boy
These solders hearts will soar
When the tell of the adventures
In the Iraq War

Tomorrow God will be by your side
Regardless if you see him there
The shadow that follows behind you
Even through the times you don't care
He holds you high for the things you do
No one could ask for more
Of all the Angels he gives you
In the Iraq War
