Story Behind The Song

I have been there myself....

Song Description

She is home with the kids, doing her normal every day things but keeping her soldier present in their lives while he is deployed. She finds most comfort in his words telling her I'll be home, we can get through this, we are strong, wait for me.

Lyrics

7/08 c2020 Soldier's Song w/m V.Penny Gottsche

V1- She believes in God and country
that good will prevail and honor will stand
she's invested in the high price of freedom
and finds hope with the Bible in her hand

V2- She prays with the kids for their Daddy
in a hell so far from home
she holds on for dear life to that moment
he whispered these words ad was gone

Chorus- I'll be home, I'll be home
I gotta do this, you can do this
together, together we'll get through
just say you'll be here waiting for me
keep my pillow right close by yours 'cause
time's gonna fly
before you know it I'll be touching down then
I'll be home, I'll be home

V3- She holds onto him by a heartstring
she even writes a little country song
she sings her way through the hours
of this lifetime while he's gone

Channel- She knows it's just temporary
and she's not really alone

Chorus- He said- I'll be home, I'll be home
I gotta do this, you can do this
together, together we'll get through
just say you'll be here waiting for me
keep my pillow right close by yours 'cause
time's gonna fly
before you know it I'll be touching down then
I'll be home, I'll be home
