You Promised

 You Promised

You promised me you'd come home

You promised me that night

You'd always be close...close to my heart

Oh I know but Im keeping us free

and saving some innocent lives

They need me here now

and when Im done

I will make good on my vow

and as I promised to you

I'll come home

I'll come home loving you

just as I do

just as i do ...love you now

You promised me you'd come home

You promised me that night

You'd always be close...close to my heart

Oh I know but the fighting is hard

and the life Im saving is mine

They needed me here now

and when Im done

I will make good some how

and as I promised to you

I'll come home

I'll come home loving you

just as I do

just as i do ...love you now

You promised me you'd come home

You promised me that night

You'd always be close...close to my heart

Oh I know you promised me

and I'm so proud of your life

and I understand.. I cried

They carried you home

with tears in their eyes

handed me your colors.

..with utmost pride.

*whispered* He saved every last one our lives

Now he's home to stay this time

We left no one

We left no one... behind

You promised me you'd come home

You promised me that night

You'll always be close....close in my heart

Just as I do

Just as you did ..I will always love you.
