Story Behind The Song

I wrote this song for my wife when I was getting ready to deploy while I was in a band called Deny The Flesh. The band broke up so I took the opportunity to complete the song in the vision I intended.

Song Description

An honest heavy love song that thanks military spouses and families for their service from the soldier they love

Lyrics

Alone in the dessert
Thinking of you
Read another letter
helps me get through
think about the moments
You're all alone
Crying and worried
I won't come home

wish I could show you
How much I love you
wish I could be there
To help you get through
count down the days
till I see you again
I need to tell you
You're the reason I live

I am honored
To be loved by you
Everything that you do
Carries me through
I am honored
For all that you give
To the red, white and blue
For this I salute

Walking off the plane
I see you there
eyes of an angel
inviting me near
No words could ever
Express how I feel
I need to tell you
You're the reason I'm here
