Lyrics
VERSE: I see you when I close my eyes. I see you in a cloud filled sky. I see you every moment of the day.
I want you home and in my arms. I'd break the glass-pull the alarm! If it would get you back to me today!
CHORUS: Well I know that America has called on you. To defend every thing we hold dear and true. And we're proud to be waiving the red, white and blue. Still I've got to let you know,that I'm missing you.
VERSE: I know you long to hold your son- instead of holding up your gun. He's pitching in the All Star game today.
Our independence has a cost.
So many moments, we have lost.
But that's the price for freedom that we pay.
CHORUS: And I know that America has called on you. To defend every thing we hold dear and true. And we're proud to be waiving the red, white and blue. Still I've got to let you know, that we're missing you!
BRIDGE: Long may it wave!
Home of the brave!
Independece has a cost. So many loved ones we have lost.
But that's the price for freedom that we pay.
CHORUS: Well I know that America has called on you. To defend every thing we hold dear and true. And we're proud to be waiving the red, white and blue. Still I've got to let you know,that I'm missing you!
Yea, Ive got to let you know-
that I'm missing you.
