Home Again Lyrics by Queensrÿche

American Soldier

2009

It's harder than I thought to be so far away
So I thought I'd write this letter to you and explain
For me it wasn't easy to raise the flag and leave
But I thought that you should know how much you mean to me

I won't be there to see you dance
And hear you sing the songs we love
So please be strong, it won't be long
Till I'm home again

You know you make me proud
Because you're the one that I depend upon
And when I return, I promise
I'll never leave you alone again

It's harder than I thought and you're so far away
So I thought I'd write this letter to you and explain
It was only a moment, I turned my head to wipe my eyes
When I looked again I saw your smile that said goodbye

Mama says don't worry
'Cause Daddy's brave and he's coming home
But if I could change one thing
I'd never let you go (never let you go)

I want you here to see me dance
And sing along to the songs we love
So I'll be strong, it won't be long
Till you're home again with me

When it feels too much to take, I want you to know
That I'm thinking 'bout you, making plans for when I'm home
Why aren't you here? I wake up every night
I check the front porch light
Making sure it's shining bright

And I'll be there to shine the light
So you can find your way to me
I'm feeling strong, but don't take too long
Please come home to me

And I'll be there to see you dance
And hear you sing the songs I love
So please abe strong, it won't be long
Till I'm home again

And I'll be there to see you dance
And hear you sing the songs I love
So please abe strong, it won't be long
Till I'm home again

Why aren't you here?
I'm coming home
Why aren't you here?
I'm coming home
Why aren't you here?
