Lyrics
I can see the tears in his daughter's eyes As he says goodbye He's full of fear But he grabs his gear And falls in line Says she'll be just fine Cuz she's got his strength And her mother's heart Not even hell on earth Can keep them apart The Sky is black And the wind's so cold But the thought of her face Warms his soul It gives him hope The ride is long And the rest all sleep He makes a promise That we know he can't keep He'll see her again When he comes back home His wife at her side; Their new son in tow She'll laugh and shout As she runs to her dad And gives him the hugs That he wishes he could have cuz he's got hope He tries to speak As the blood fills his lungs He watches his friends Falling one by one He shuts his eyes And his tears wet his skin Now all he hopes Is that she won't forget him He's got hope He's got hope
