This song is dedicated to military spouses. It can be hard saying goodbye to our loved ones as they go off for deployment or even TDY. It's tough holding down the house and the bills on your own, or maybe being pregnant and raising children for an extended amount of time by yourself. PCSing and having to make a new life over and over can cause you to put up walls around your heart.
I once was active duty but I was also a spouse and It always made me feel encouraged when someone thanked me for my support for my spouse. So take heart, you all are doing great and I want you to know that I see you and appreciate you and all that you do and go through as a military spouse.

Lyrics:
Today you were here but tomorrow you're gone
One more day without you in my life one more year that I'm alone
But I will be strong and I'll hold my head high
I know you are fighting for my freedom
I know you are fighting for my life
I'm sitting alone writing letters to you
Tell you how your son is growing day by day and how he looks and thinks like you
So I will have fun live a life full of cheer
I know you would want me to be strong for him and if you could you would be here
But sometimes it's hard when you leave a kiss and walk away
It's hard knowing I could lose you any moment
It's hard when I lay awake at night with no embrace
So I fall on my knees and I pray
Lord keep my hero safe
I need to feel loved and I need to feel whole
Everyday I long to have you holding me so I don't feel so alone
I'm waiting here and deep down I hope
I hope you will make it to the other side
I hope you make it home
But sometimes it's hard when you leave a kiss and walk away
It's hard knowing I could lose you any moment
It's hard when I lay awake at night with no embrace
So I fall on my knees and I pray
Lord keep my hero safe
Isn't there anyone else someone who can take his place
I don't want him to go through hell is there anyway you can let him stay
Isn't there anyone else someone who can take his place
I don't want him to go through hell is there anyway you can let him stay
So I fall on my knees and I pray
Lord keep my hero safe
