VERSE
When your eyes open tomorrow
And you rise to start the day
I’ll have been up long before you
In this God forsaken place
While your kids run out the front door
And laughter fills your ears
Sounds of battle fill my morning
And war is all I hear
CHORUS
Hey, I will do what it takes
I will stand up and chase your fears away
Fight. Not gonna run and hide
I will be on that line My sacrifice
VERSE 2
Yeah the bossman drops the hammer
When your work is over due
But I can’t afford a failure
Cause there’s way too much to loose
On your way home from a long day
When you wish the train would pass
Know that every mile I’ve driven
Could be my very last
BRIDGE
You may have to pull yourself
from the screen to tuck them in
But I’d give anything to hold my baby
Boy and girl again
